Series II. Committees
Series
Scope and Contents
From the Collection:
The Records of the Offices of Communication and Development date from 1977 to 1999 and consist of reports, minutes, and committee files; fellowship information, including membership packets; grants, including the capital campaign the New Century Fund; correspondence; press releases and newsclippings; and material regarding the Bicentennial Symposium in 1987.
The collection is arranged into seven series: Records, Committees, Fellowship, Development, Public Relations, Programs and Events, and Bicentennial Celebration.
Series I: Records (1992-1994) holds the documentation of the administration of the department, including correspondence from the Communications Department and the Development Department, senior staff meeting minutes; and information relating to the Wallace Roberts Todd architectural survey in 1994.
Series II: Committees dates from 1992 to 1995. The series holds correspondence and some meeting minutes from College committees, especially those related to the functions of the Communications and Development Departments, such as the Committees on Admissions and Fellowship. The series also holds some material from the Committees on Programs and Public Health, as well as the Women’s Committee.
Series III: Fellowship spans the years 1988 to 1999 and consists of information about deceased Fellows and those that resigned or forfeited their memberships through non-payment of dues. Of note are the membership packets, which include advertising material for contemporary Mütter Museum exhibits and College events, which provide evidence of the focus and strengths of the College at the time.
Series IV: Development (1978-1999) is comprised mainly of information about funding campaigns, including the New Century Fund and the Library fund campaign. Although the Development Department was not created until 1987, this series also includes the records of grants and gifts to the College, previously administered by committees.
Series V: Public Relations spans the years 1972 to 1994. The series not only contains press releases and other publicity sent to media from the newly-created Communications Department, but also newsclippings and other articles which mention the College. The material pre-dating the Communications was likely saved by an employee in the Executive Office for future reference.
Series VI: Programs and Events documents some of the programming of the College from 1987 to 1994. Of special interest may are the materials regarding the Continuing Medical Education program (1994), one of the earliest College programs to actively support continuing education.
Series VII: Bicentennial Celebration holds information pertaining to the College’s bicentennial celebration in 1987. This series includes press kits, correspondence with speakers, and pins given out for the celebration. Of note is the address given by President Ronald Reagan for the bicentennial celebration on 1 April, 1987.
