The Joseph H. Willits Papers will be of interest to the historian of social science and education in the United States. Dr. Willits's keen interest in the quality of academic life is amply documented in his correspondence and manuscripts. The papers focus on Dr. Willits's years after his retirement from The Rockefeller Foundation in 1954 and include correspondence and reports relating to The Educational Survey (1954-1959) and his work on the manuscript "Excellence and Mediocrity in Colleges and Universities" (1961-1969). Approximately one-sixth of this collection refers to his pre-retirement career: this portion (mostly in Series 1) includes speeches, correspondence, and reports generated from his association with the Wharton School and The Rockefeller Foundation. Personal correspondence, however, has been scantily preserved.

This series documents portions of Nelson A. Rockefeller's public and private activities between 1968 and 1974. These records were created and maintained by members of Rockefeller's staff at his office at 22 West 55th Street, New York, also called the New York Office. Rockefeller was one of the first New York governors to maintain a permanent office in New York City. In general, Rockefeller was in Albany only while the Legislature was in session or for special occasions. The management of his public duties was undertaken largely at 55th Street. The office was paid for privately by Rockefeller, but many of the staff were public employees. When he resigned as governor, on December 20, 1973, some of the staff became Rockefeller's personal employees. Some of them went on the federal payroll and moved to Washington, DC, when Rockefeller became Vice President of the United States on December 19, 1974.

Primarily, these files deal with construction issues and equal employment opportunities, as well as affirmative action concerns on construction sites around New York State.
