Scope and Contents
This subseries includes memoranda, final reports, and proposals for new initiatives that Selig wrote for several Chairs of the Department of Anthropology both at the beginning of her career (1975-1983) and after she returned to the Museum in the 1990s. The first two folders document the growth of the Department's Office of Public Information and Education Outreach, first established with a narrow responsibility of answering public inquiries, and then dedicated to a broader outreach effort of teacher training programs, curriculum materials, AnthroNotes, AnthroNotes books, and a resource center of anthropological teaching materials. This Subseries also includes the 2002 Memorial Service in Baird Auditorium for anthropology department chair Carolyn Rose, which Selig organized, and the Department of Anthropology's 2019 celebration of John Wesley Powell, in which Selig participated.
Collection Restrictions
The Ruth O. Selig papers are open for research. Access to the papers requires an appointment.
