Organizational History:
The Research Committee was established in 1948 and was called the College Committee on Research until 1960. The committee serves as an advisory body to the university president on research programs and policies, studies the problems and opportunities involved in research, and advises the president regarding the fields in which adequate research activities should be initiated or expanded. It also serves as a clearinghouse for efforts to secure research funds and grants-in-aid from outside sources and administers special research grants.
The records of the Research Committee are arranged in a single series in chronological order and date from 1950 to 1967. The records are comprised of numerous reports from individual medical and biological research projects with accompanying summary sheets. A single folder containing medical and biological research financial statements from 1957 to 1965 is included.
The Collection is open for research use.
he records of the Research Committee were transferred to Washington State University Libraries prior to 1970 (WSU 187).
The records were processed in August 1984 by Patricia M. Gourd.
