Series 3: Research Material for Fact-Finding Investigation, Stipulations, and Brief Exhibits, 1879-1992
Collection Overview
Collection Description & Creator Information
- Scope and Contents
The Research Material series contains extensive information collected by Sally Frank's team (as well from the other parties) during the cursory investigation conducted by the Division on Civil Rights in 1980-1981, and again in 1983-1984. The investigation was intended to determine whether a relationship existed between the eating clubs and Princeton University. Thousands of pages of documents were submitted by all parties which consisted of meeting minutes and reports from the Board of Trustees and Dean of the Faculty and reports of the Committee on Student Life, the Committee on Undergraduate Life, the Undergraduate Interclub Committee (UICC), and various other student/club committees and organizations. In addition, photocopies of the deeds of Ivy Club, Tiger Inn, and University Cottage Club, charter information, certificates, and member lists are included here. Memoranda, newspaper clippings, campus publications, and specific court proceedings of other discriminatory cases are also located in this series.
