DESCRIPTIVE ENTRY
The major portion of these records was created during the tenure of Philip
Ritterbush. Also included is some material from Ritterbush's tenure as Special
Assistant to the Secretary for Scientific Matters, 1964-1967, and as Assistant
to the Secretary for Policy Analysis and Planning, 1967-1968. These items
apparently were integrated into the records of the Office of Academic
Programs.
