Scope and Contents note

From the Collection:

Records of the Campus Planning and Facilities office which include project files, administrative files, aerial photographs, an architectural model, and general files on campus buildings and grounds.

Series I contains materials pertaining to buildings: construction, renovation, and demolition. Types of materials include: correspondence, funding documents and financial information, proposals, site plans, surveys, floor plans, reports, maps, and a trace number of photographs. Files are arranged by building name and in some cases, the files reflect repurposing and multiple renamings.

A number of buildings on campus were constructed simultaneously and files are sometimes intermixed; for example, Strozier and Cobb. Also, files with the title, “Academic Center” pertains to a cluster of buildings including Library, Social Science, and Math-Physics.

Series II documents property acquisitions, timber sales, campus maps (primarily from the 1960s and 1970s), road construction, parking lots, electrical distribution centers, landscaping, recreational and athletics areas (like tennis courts and tracks). Files also include materials about asbestos and asbestos removal projects. A portion of these files are administrative in nature (not specific project files) and many contain the name of the staff member responsible for their keeping. A Third Accession is composed of aerial photographs of campus and an architectural model of buildings within the Academic Quad.
