This collection consists of the photographs and graphics included in issues of the Columbia Research News newsletter. These images include Columbia faculty such as Carl F. Kayan, David Thurber, John R. Dunning, David Nachmansohn and C. S. Wu. There are also items which supplied the text for some of the articles: press releases, both internal (News Office) and external (New York Academy of Sciences and Bell Telephone), and newspaper clippings.

This collection contains the recorded minutes from the different faculty meetings: from the representative University Council to the individual schools (Columbia College, Engineering, Journalism, Law, etc.). Faculty meeting minutes include information on admissions, the academic calendar, curricular changes, faculty appointments and leaves, student petitions, fellowships, grants, prizes, and graduation requirements among other topics. Unfortunately, this collection is not complete. Additional minutes can be found in the record collections of the different faculties. For example, there is complete set of the minutes of the Faculty of Columbia College in the Columbia College records. Similarly, the minutes of the Seth Low Junior College and the minutes for the New York School of Social Work can be found in their respective collections.
