Scope and Contents

From the Collection: These administrative files of the Rice University History Department reflect the daily business of the department, including meeting minutes, memos, correspondence, program and committee files, faculty files, Rorschach Lecture files and CHLI project files. This material begins with the 1960s and goes through the 1980s, when the department was significantly expanded.

Faculty Files are restricted for privacy reasons and include correspondence with faculty and administration, including various Rice presidents, conference papers/articles/publications, CVs, research/travel funding requests, student evaluations, hiring and promotions, and personnel/salary information.

The Center for the History of Leadership Institutions (CHLI) was established in the early 1980s to meet the need for written histories of business, professional and public sector organizations in the Southwest. The Center produced written histories for corporations and served both to teach an organization about itself and to provide a basis for better public understanding. The Center was founded by Rice history professor Harold M. Hyman. The CHLI material includes business invoices, correspondence, funding requests for research and travel, and short corporate histories. It is restricted for privacy reasons but can be prepared for access upon request.
