Historical note

From a June 1954 committee report: This committee, appointed by the President of the University in January 1954, was asked to evaluate all aspects of student life other than the time spent in regularly scheduled classes, and to make recommendations as to the ways in which the extracurricular activities at Colgate may contribute most fully to the educational aims of the college.



The Committee on the Residential College and the Residential Life Committee (A1245) appear to be two distinct groups, with no continuity between the two.
