Scope & content

The records document the activities of the Board of Directors, 1877-1901, and the Board of Trustees, 1901-2007. The bulk of the records are twenty-three volumes of meeting minutes, 1877-2007, and Agenda Notebooks, 1995-2007, which may include supporting records such as correspondence, committee reports, and administrative records. The bulk of such supporting material accompanies the minutes for 1984-2007. There is a small collection (.10 linear ft.) of correspondence to Board Secretaries Sarah Doyle, 1877-1889, and Howard M. Rice, 1889-1914.
