These files were kept by Peter Low, who was assistant dean from 1965-1969 and associate dean from 1969-1975. The largest group of records are from the Faculty Appointments Committee of which Law was a member; these folders contain an assortment of working materials for selecting new faculty members. There are "original" files on student problems, military service, schedules for classes and exams, and transfer students. The remaining files are copies of reports, memoranda and regulations from a variety of committees.

These files were transferred to the Law Library 15 January 1979.

RG 101-81 contains miscellaneous administraive files of the University of Virginia Law School covering the period 1970-1980. Much of the material originated in the offices of Deans Peter Low and H. Lane Kneedler. The files contain faculty and administrative circulars and memoranda, registration and appointments information, correspondence of the deans, and other assorted notices and university-wide materials.

These files were received in 1981.

These addendum consists of the "Action Plan," one notebook for preventing further reductions in state general fund appropriations.

RG 101-90 contains the administrative files of H. Lane Kneedler who served as assistant and later associate dean from 1969 to 1984, working with Deans Monrad Paulsen, Emerson Spies, and Richard Merrill. These files document in detail the administration of the Law School during this period and are particularly strong in areas such as budget, personnel, curriculum, scheduling, and building maintenance.

This record group is extremely rich in Law School history for the period represented because the files cover not only standard administrative matters but also special or crisis issues.

The majority of the documents was in labeled folders; material that was not labeled and foldered was assigned a heading in processing. Some weeding of the files was necessary: teaching material, some routine personnel files, printed material, job applications, and some routine University circulars were removed from the collection. The registration files were sampled so that every other year after 1970 is represented.

These files were transferred to the library in 1990.
