Scope and Contents

The records of the Canadian Studies Program were separated from the R. Barry Farrell Papers (Series 11/3/22/10) which should also include material relating to the Program. The records, which span the period 1973-1991, occupy six boxes and are arranged in five main categories: basic documents, correspondence, financial records, fund raising, and Quebec fellowships. Small amounts of material on research and trips are also included.

The basic documents include descriptions of the program for various groups, applications from students, proposals for grants, various reports, and information relating to the Canadian tour by U.S. journalists.

The general correspondence deals with the Program's academic courses, speakers, trips, and related matters. The subject correspondence is with University administrators and other individuals and groups.

The financial records report income from the University and from external sources and expenses.

The fund raising category consists primarily of correspondence seeking or acknowledging grants and gifts.

The Quebec Fellowships category contains correspondence with individuals and institutions (primarily Laval University) and student applications.
