"Shaping Our Destiny" Conference Monograph, 1983

The first box in the Helen Grenga Papers contains materials relating to her academic career. Resumes, applications, and letters of recommendation from students and colleagues document her promotion from Associate Professor to Full Professor in the School of Chemical Engineering in 1976. Ephemera on the subject of women in engineering is contained in Box 1, Folder 3. The remainder of the box consists of Society of Women Engineers at Georgia Tech resume books.

Class materials include class notes, tests, and syllabi. The majority of the classes she taught were in metallurgy. The administrative files from the Office of Graduate Studies and Research include phone numbers, meeting times, and memoranda.

Dr. Grenga conducted several projects based on grants from the National Science Foundation. These proposals and reports constitute the third series. A few are pending or incomplete, with notes of explanation from Dr. Grenga.

Dr. Grenga grouped publications and speeches together as part of her own filing system, which has been maintained in series 4. Consequently, the transcripts of speeches she presented at conferences, such as the Metallurgy Society Conference, are interspersed with articles she wrote. Other authors wrote the last three papers, including a student doctoral thesis for which she was the advisor.
