Center for Japanese Studies (University of Michigan) records, 1945-2008 (majority within 1950-2000)

20.3 linear feet — 38 GB (online)

Online
Correspondence, reports, budgets, and other materials concerning the establishment of the Okayama Field Station and the subsequent publication of Village Japan, including correspondence with Douglas MacArthur; also records and minutes, 1947-1987, of the executive committee of the Center for Japanese Studies; also papers relating to the programs and financial operations of the center; and photographs and films.

The Center for Japanese Studies records document the founding and functioning of the center, covering the period from the late-1940s through the 1990s. The center's executive committee minutes and official correspondence cover most of this period evenly. Otherwise, documentation of the center's history is somewhat uneven. The center's first decade is well covered, with a considerable amount of field research notes and audio-visual material. From the early-1960s on, however, such documentation is sparse. This later period is documented in other ways, though. The records include a considerable amount of material concerning grants and fundraising, and these documents often describe the center's activities in detail. The records pertaining to special activities of the center also cover the later decades well.

The records are arranged in nine series: Administrative Files, Correspondence, Course Material, Faculty Files, Financial, Grants, Research Special Activities, and Audio-Visual Material.

Minutes, correspondence, audiovisual materials, and other records documenting the founding, public programs, research projects, day-to-day administrative activities, and individual staff members of the University of Michigan's Center for the Education of Women.

The Center for Education of Women collection consist of minutes, correspondence, audiovisual materials, and other records documenting the founding, public programs, research projects, day-to-day administrative activities, and individual staff members of the University of Michigan's Center for the Education of Women. It is divided into four broad subgroups: Central Office Files, 1961-2009; Individual Staff Files, 1919-1999; Audiovisual Materials, 1963-1997; and Website. The current CEW collection is the result of a major reprocessing project that combined several new accessions with the pre-existing record group--itself the accumulation of several accessions--and which has resulted in a re-figured collection nearly double the size of the original. The first three subgroups and their major series have been retained, but some of the lower-level organization has been updated to reflect the fuller picture of the Center that the combined set of materials affords.

Documents within folders may be arranged either chronologically or reverse chronologically, based on the existing arrangement of the majority of materials (in both the pre-existing collection and in the new accessions), and in some cases may adhere to the original filing order. Also, some files (e.g. most correspondence) were filed by calendar year (Jan-Dec.), while others (notably budgets, staff meetings, and program files) were filed by fiscal year. Unless otherwise noted, files arranged by academic year (indicated in the box list by dates such as '1990/91') run from July of the first year through June of the second year.

Researchers examining the CEW collection may also be interested in related files in the following other Bentley University of Michigan record groups: Institute on Gerontology, Michigan Initiative on Women's Health, Provost and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs.

Additionally, researchers should note the following overlaps between the 'Topical' series in the 'Central Office Files' subgroup and the files of CEW staff members in the 'Individual Staff Files' subgroup:

  1. Counseling: Myra Fabian, Dorothy McGuigan, Vivian Rogers, and Patricia Wulp
  2. Evening Program (especially 1982 and later): Patricia Wulp
  3. Group Counseling and Workshops (e.g., Career Decision Making, Assertiveness, the Step Before the Job Search, etc.): Myra Fabian, Barbara Anton, and Patricia Wulp
  4. Programs by Academic Year: Patricia Wulp
  5. Publicity: Louise Cain, Patricia Wulp and Dorothy McGuigan
  6. Research (including: non-traditional student surveys, Women in Science (and Engineering) studies, participant data, and especially Ford Grants): Jean Campbell, Carol Hollenshead, Jean Manis, Hazel Markus, and Dorothy McGuigan
  7. Sexual Harassment Implementation Team and other Sexual Harassment materials: Sue Kaufmann
  8. Women's Initiative Group (WING): Myra Fabian, Sue Kaufmann, Vivian Rogers, and Patricia Wulp

Due to the decentralized nature of the CEW records, researchers are encouraged to check for headings in each of the subgroups and series, even for subjects not listed above.

An oral history project undertaken by the University of Michigan Center for the History of Medicine, the project focused on interviewing retired or emeritus faculty members in order to preserve their institutional knowledge of the Medical Center and the university.

All interviews include discussions of the faculty member's early life, education, and career accomplishments.

The interviews are available as digital materials online and were recorded on audio cassettes. In addition to these audio formats, there are one or more folders corresponding to each interview, which contain a typed transcript of the interview, a copy of the faculty member's curriculum vitae and in some cases, additional biographical information. The interviews conducted by Enid Galler include an index (with people, organizations, and subjects) and a detailed subject list. Mary Beth Reilly conducted later interviews.

Centers for South and Southeast Asian Studies, University of Michigan records, 1961-2011 (majority within 1961-1999)

28 linear feet — 4.87 GB (online.)

Online
A cross-disciplinary center at the University of Michigan for the study of the languages, history, culture, and contemporary society of South and Southeast Asia. This record group documents the administration of the Center and some of the programs and research activities it sponsored. Also included are materials from the Center for South Asian Studies and the Center for Southeast Asian Studies, following the administrative split of the Center in fall, 1999.

The Center for South and Southeast Asian Studies record group documents the administrative and academic activities of the Center for South and Southeast Asian Studies between 1961 and 1999. It also documents the activities of the two proceeding centers, the Center for South Asian Studies (CSAS) and the Center for Southeast Asian Studies (CSEAS). Because the Centers had their own budgets and administrative needs well before they split in 1999, and because the Centers share office space, staff, and executive committees as of 2023, the records remain combined in this collection, despite being administratively distinct in the University hierarchy.

The collection is divided into five series: Administrative Records, Funding, Center for Southeast Asian Studies, Programs and Conferences, and Publications. The Administrative Records series covers staffing and Center topical files complied by CSSEAS related to the administrative activities of the Centers. The Funding series includes information about budgets, grants and grant proposals, and financial gifts for the academic programs run by the Centers. The Center for Southeast Asian Studies series covers the administrative and funding records for the newly established center starting in 1999. The collection currently does not contain administrative materials from the Center from South Asian Studies; information about that center post-1999 can be found in Programs and Conferences, and Publications.

Programs and Conferences covers the academic and community events, as well as conference proceedings, sponsorships, and participation by CSSEAS, and later, CSAS and CSEAS. The bulk of this material dates from 1972 until the 2000s. The Publications series encompasses all publications created by the Centers or its faculty and students for promotional, professional, or educational purposes. It includes directories, course listings, newsletters, book chapters, and manuscripts from CSSEAS, CSAS, and CSEAS.
