Board minutes transferred to University Archives prior to 2002 came from various University offices and administrators. This manner of receipt affected the arrangement and description of files as small collections were integrated into the whole. The bulk of materials came from Rev. Edward Riley C.M, Secretary to the Board of Trustees, in 1986 and 1988. Subsequent additions throughout the 1980s and 1990s were made from the files of Dr. Patricia Ewers, Vice-President, Dean of Faculties and Elaine Watson, Secretary of the University (1998.3). As Vincentians who worked in administrative positions retired, those records were also transferred. These included: Rev. John Cortelyou, C.M.; Rev. Albert Dundas, C.M.; Rev. Edward Kammer, C.M.; Rev. Comerford O'Malley, C.M.; Rev. John Richardson, C.M.; and Rev. Theodore Wangler, C.M.. Smaller amounts were transferred from University administrators such as David Sharer, Comptroller; Art Schaefer, Director of Public Relations; and Jack Kompare, Vice President for Business and Finance. In 2002, The Office of the Secretary began systematic transfer of Board minutes and files. The files as transferred from this office are the documents of record of the University. As these collections are added they are arranged as defined by the Secretary of the Board of Trustees.
