Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

This collection includes records created by student organizations at Reed College. Records include meeting minutes, handouts, emails, group constitutions, reports, budget documentation, notes, and pamphlets. Some records appear to have been collected by staff (possibly in the President's office) about student organizations, and include memos and correspondence between the student organization and the administration.

When a student organization donates a significant amount of materials, those materials might be described in an independent collection guide (finding aid).
