The Administrative File holds the records of various committees within IDD and documentation of various reviews of the unit. "Memoranda and Correspondence" primarily contains departmental communications with other university offices. Records of two Review Committees, 1978 and 1984-1985, pertain to analyses of IDD and its original parent organization, Institute of Science and Technology (IST). These folders hold valuable documentation on the status of IDD at those times. The "Realignment" folders contain materials relating to IDD's administrative shift from IST to the College of Engineering and the School of Business.
Administrative Files
The Administrative Files series is comprised of records created by the Diversity Blueprints Task Force and its subcommittees in the fulfillment of their official charge from President Mary Sue Coleman. The records in this series were originally created and maintained in a collaborative digital workspace (CTools, the University of Michigan's implementation of the open source Sakai platform). Screenshots of this software platform are included alongside records to provide contextual information about the original environment of the materials. The series is divided into six sections: records of the full Task Force, records of the four subcommittees (Undergraduate Admissions, Financial Aid, and Pipeline; Graduate Student Recruitment, Retention, and Pipeline; Faculty and Staff Hiring and Retention; and Educational Outreach and Engagement), and the Task Force final report. The task force and subcommittee records consist of email correspondence (with attachments), report drafts, suggestions from the community, information on diversity initiatives at peer institutions, meeting materials, PowerPoint presentations, and reviews of U-M efforts to promote diversity.
Administrative Files
The Toward A Fair Michigan records reflect that organization's efforts to promote dialogue on the controversial ballot initiative Proposal 2 (the Michigan Civil Rights Initiative) and encourage public participation in the political process. In addition to illustrating essential steps in the formation and management of 501(c)(3) nonprofit groups, the records will be especially valuable to those interested in the public debate surrounding Proposal 2 and the issue of affirmative action in the United States in the early 21st century. The collection is comprised of three series: Administrative Files, Program Director's Files, and Organizational Activities.
Administrative Records
The Administrative series includes office correspondence, financial files, meeting minutes, and planning proposals, giving information on the daily operations of the Office of Multi-Ethnic Student Affairs. The Administrative series includes records of Minority Student Services (MSS). Within these files are notes from the MSS retreat, MSS training council, and the multi-cultural training program. These programs helped the staff learn more about other cultures and how to plan better programs that serve the needs of students who identified with those cultures. This series also includes materials related to MESA's student organization grant program, files from the computer of Program Manager, associate director and interim director Linh Nguyen, and materials related to the Growing Allies retreat.
