The collection includes multiple detailed reports covering the administrative and departmental reviews of the individual colleges, the instructional and research programs, and the leadership for each academic division within the university. Also included in the collection are the correspondence, letters, and memoranda between the chancellor's office, the vice provost and various deans related to the departmental reviews and program evaluation. Additionaly, the collection includes assorted proposals for the development and addition of new instructional and academic programs within the individual colleges, such as the development of a technical writing degree within the English department or the addition of Master's degree programs in Education.
The materials date from 1958 to 1990, with a break in the records from 1991 to 1999, and the years 2000 to 2002. The bulk of the records date from the 1960s and 1970s.
