This series contains agendas, minutes, correspondence, budget proposals, reports to the Senate, reports from sub-committees and other councils and memoranda relating to the council's responsibility for the oversight of campus planning and for the establishment of educational priorities. The council participates in the formulation and execution of the campus budget and evaluates the educational performance of the University as a whole and of its various components ( Faculty Handbook , 1984, pp. 18-19). Issues under consideration by the council include the budget, academic regulations, the curriculum, faculty work load, teaching excellence, enrollment and class size. The Council was originally created by the Graduate Council as a standing committee in 1961/62. The Council has three standing Committees, the Long-Range Planning Committee, the Resource Advisory Committee (formerly the Resource Allocation Committee), and the Evaluation Policy Committee (formerly the Program Evaluation Committee).

This series includes agendas, minutes, annual reports, reports to the Senate, bills and resolutions, and correspondence. This series also includes the records of the Interfaith Committee and the International Students Committee. The Council's concerns are to develop policies necessary to establish and maintain extracurricular programs and to make recommendations concerning University policy affecting student activities in these programs ( Faculty Handbook , 1984, p. 23). The Student Affairs council has dealt with the issues of campus relations, university communications (1971), alumni affairs, alcohol policy, student conduct, inspection of student housing (1973), policy regarding student records, campus ambulance service (1972-1973), and the SUNYA judicial system (1972-80). The Student Affairs Council was the successor to the Student Personnel Council, a college council independent of the Faculty Council ( Faculty Handbook , 1962, p. 20).

This series includes agendas, minutes, annual reports, bills and legislation, correspondence, and reports to the Senate of the University Community Council. The council oversees university-wide matters, non-academic in nature, including external communications, operation of the University Auxiliary Service, and such policies affecting public safety, transportation, parking, etc. ( Faculty Handbook , 1984, p. 24). The predecessor to the University Community Council was the Committee on Community Liaison of the Faculty Council ( Faculty Handbook , 1962, p. 16).

Compilations produced sporadically in the 1980s and 1990s of news articles "printed in commercial and UUP affiliate publications which reflect the union's activities and interests in communities across the state and in the state capital [as well as] activities that might be useful for information or reprinting in chapter newsletters". When produced, "UUP in the News" was distributed at Delegate Assemblies.

A large portion of the pamphlets date from the 1920s.

Programs; task force reports, brochures for members, scholarships, and awards; and other printed materials used for both internal purposes and to publicly disseminate UUP's mission and positions on various issues. Some of the materials in this subseries were not actually produced by UUP's Communications Department, but have been grouped here for ease of access. Some of the materials in this subseries are also found with the memorabilia in Series 9 of this Subgroup. Tentative dates were assigned for some of the materials in this subseries based on information provided by members of UUP's Communications Department.

This subseries includes reports and publications by Schaefer, his colleagues at the ASRC, and colleagues from other institutions who worked closely with Schaefer and occasionally collaborated with the ASRC. Names from the latter group will sound familiar from Schaefer's consulting materials, such as Wendell Mordy and Paul MacCready. Topics range from annual ASRC reports, to solar energy work, to particle studies and more. Some documents are official reprints of articles while others are handwritten manuscripts or typescripts.

These pamphlets deal predominately with conditions in post-war Germany and problems of refugees displaced during and immediately following World War II.
