Series I: Office Files

This series represents the bulk of the collection. It includes subject files presumably collected during McGoey's term as Business Manager (1950s-1960s). There are records related to the University's extensive construction projects (East Campus, Engineering Center, the new Law School), non-academic staff benefits and retirement policies. These files are organized alphabetically. There are also committee meeting minutes and some 'Reading Files' which are McGoey's outgoing correspondence or carbon copies, organized by month.
