Director, Job Description, 1992

Series 1 documents the development of an Environmental Studies Program at Oberlin from the second ad-hoc committee of the late 1970s, to the Environmental Studies Committee (1979), then the Environmental Studies Program Committee (1980-93). Although program status was granted in the 1979-80 academic year, the ESPC slowly expanded their control over the new program. This series consists of documents pertaining to or generated by individual committee members. The existence today of Environmental studies at Oberlin owes much to the dedication of a small group of faculty members to this interdisciplinary field in terms of time and committee work.
