 File — Box: 1, Folder: 2

Description

From the Collection:

The Campus Names Committee records include biographies, campus map, construction reports, and correspondence. The Georgia Tech News Bureau wrote biographical sketches in support of building names. Included with the campus maps are programs from building dedications. The quarterly construction progress reports detail the status of buildings from 1968-1971, listing the architectural firm, contractor, construction cost, square footage, and the estimated completion date.

The bulk of this collection is comprised of letters between Glenn Rainey, chair of the Campus Names Committee, other members of the committee, Georgia Tech faculty, and Presidents Edwin Harrison, Arthur Hansen, Vernon Crawford (acting) and Joseph Pettit. Letters addressed to Rainey from faculty are usually a formal nomination of a building name, while letters from Rainey to the current Georgia Tech President ask or advise a decision on the naming of a particular building. Nearly all of the nominations were approved.
