Rockefeller Foundation officers' diaries:

The David H. Stevens papers contain little material of a personal nature. Consisting of reports, correspondence, pamphlets, articles, speeches, and a book manuscript, the papers focus narrowly upon Stevens's term as Director of the Humanities Division of The Rockefeller Foundation (1932-1949) and upon some of his retirement activities. Such correspondence as exists in this collection is mainly concerned with Stevens's contacts among Foundation personnel and grantees or the disposition of his papers with the Foundation archives. Approximately eighty percent of the material in this collection consists of reports and other records related to the operations of the Humanities Division. None of the material relates to Stevens's service with the General Education Board.

Types of record include: recorder cards.

This collection contains materials related to the group Collaboratives for Humanities and Arts Teaching (CHART), a project of the Rockefeller Foundation that operated from 1983-1994. While a few documents come from as early as 1983 or as late as 1994, the bulk of the materials date between 1987 and 1993. Series 1 includes substantial correspondence from CHART director Judith Renyi to the Rockefeller Foundation, CHART site directors, and many others, as well as some additional planning materials. Major Rockefeller Foundation correspondents include Alberta Arthurs and Hugh B. Price. Series 2 contains details about potential CHART sites, the CHARTnet telecommunications network between teachers, the Africa in the U.S. Classroom project, and other reports on national education issues. This series also contains considerable information about the creation and publication of the CHART book, Fire in the Eyes of Youth, a copy of which text is in the public relations materials in box 21. Series 3 includes materials such as agendas, handouts, and transcripts from various conferences which CHART members either attended or helped to organize. Finally, series 4 houses many of CHART's public relations materials, including newspaper clippings and other media as well as formal information kits. Substantial content throughout the collection also relates to individual projects sponsored by CHART, such as Humanitas and PATHS. Overall, major topics covered include the humanities, the arts, multicultural and international education, school reform and restructuring, and the funding for such reforms.
