Chancellor’s Office – Subject files records

 Collection
Identifier: UA 0041

Scope and Contents

The collection consists of data and supporting documents compiled for UIS Chancellor Richard Ringeisen for his testimony before the Illinois General Assembly regarding annual appropriations for higher education (both House and Senate Higher Education Appropriations Committees). Included in the collection, are prepared texts of University of Illinois President James J. Stukel, letters of Stukel to various members of the Illinois General Assembly, communications among members of UIS administration, information about members of the Illinois General Assembly appropriation committees, and handwritten notes taken during meetings and during appropriations testimony. These records appear to have been compiled by Emily Schirding, executive assistant to UIS Chancellor Richard Ringeisen.

They have been organized by fiscal year (FY) and cover FY 2002 through FY 2005. Each FY is organized with one main file (usually containing testimony for the appropriations committees) followed by several subject files containing data studied for that particular year.
