Binder for 1969-1971 Years, Part 1 of 3, 1969

The Dayton-Miami Valley Consortium Records include minutes, financial reports, grant proposals, correspondence, and annual reports.

The entire collection, most of which is made up of photocopies rather than original documents, appears to have come from Wright State University.

File 1, as well as File 2, record the beginning of the Dayton Miami Valley Consortium. They also indicate the desire of its officers and trustee to avoid publicity.

File 4 describes the origin of the POC. It also includes a reference to obtaining tax exemptions through amending the Articles of Incorporation. The remarks of Ambassador Lightner shed light on student attitudes during the 1970's.

File 7 deals with the results of the DMVC evaluation, the special board meeting of February 21, 1973, and it also contains an invitation to a seminar regarding fund raising.

File 8, in part, refers to the consortium's failure to pay FICA taxes. In addition, it contains a statement of primary and secondary goals and an informal bulletin on a proposal to the National Science Foundation in which the coordinators claim that they did almost all of the work with little cooperation and support from the rest of the staff.

File 10 includes the findings of the Committee on Regional Planning. It mentions the shrinkage of the consortium staff. It also suggests conflicts between private and public schools as well as between large and small schools. The DMVC Notes show the total amount of grant money received by the consortium since its founding.

File 11, Dr. Millet's conversation about an evaluation of the Educational Opportunity Center, requested by the DMVC, may warrant some attention.

In file 12, a roster of the chairmen of the DMVC's Board of Trustees from 1968 to 1978 can be found.
