The collection consists mostly of correspondence as well as constitutions, pamphlets, newspaper clippings, and request forms, generated by the Committee from 1905 to 1919. Correspondence relates to general administrative matters including eligibility requirements, governance of the Committee, correspondence with student organizations regarding eligibility of members as well as filing of eligibility blanks maintained by the Committee. The folders are arranged alphabetically by student organization name or subject followed by an alphabetical arrangement of topical folders. Names of some folders of student activities represent the actual name of the organization while others, like Baseball, represent the activity. For example, "Baseball" includes the Baseball Club, Baseball Association, and Baseball Team.

Issues covered of particular note include the Committee's forbiddance of a Christian Science group to use the name of the University in its official name. The abolition of football in 1905 until its reinstatement is widely discussed in these records. Scheduling issues, such as if teams or performance groups can practice or play on Sundays as well as if Socialist speakers are allowed to lecture for student groups, are discussed. The eligibility discussion also includes that of Extension Teaching students. Most of the correspondence from Frank Fackenthal's tenure as chairperson consists of eligibility letters to various students. When known, cases involving particular students are housed with the organization, group or club in which the student was involved. Eligibility letters regarding one particular student with no reference to the activity, are housed in "Eligibility Correspondence-Individual" filed alphabetically by the student's name. Eligibility letters relating to more than one student with no reference to a specific activity are housed in "Eligibility Correspondence-General" filed chronologically. "Senior Societies" includes information about the Nacoms, Sachems and Nimikwa (or Nimiqua) societies. "Governance" contains the resolution establishing the Committee as well as correspondence regarding appointments and meeting minutes. "Notes and Keys" encompasses the Glee, Mandolin, and Banjo Clubs.
