Content DescriptionReturn to Top

The present records are those of one member of the task force, Alice M. Spitzer, and are undoubtedly somewhat incomplete. They are, however, a working file illustrating the deliberations of the task force.

The records consist of minutes of the task force (as well as those of the building remodeling committee), photocopies of articles, notes and drafts of reports, not in any particular order.
