    • This collection is not divided into series, but much of the material throughout relates to faculty affairs.

  • RG 09 – Faculty and Staff Records
    • This collection would likely be the primary resource for anyone investigating issues around faculty. In addition to individual profiles/records of several faculty members, this collection is comprised mainly of the Faculty Senate records. These records are still being processed but consist of nearly 100 cubic feet of material outlining faculty issues, policy, meetings, and more. Where available, full-time faculty lists and directories are also included in this collection.
       
  • RG 11 – University Publications
    • Several series in this collection contain material by or about Bentley faculty. Yearbooks and course catalogs can be helpful in identifying professors and courses, while the student newspaper and alumni magazine often provide updates on faculty activity. More specifically, the Faculty/Staff Newsletter and Record of Faculty Achievement directly address faculty issues and activities.
       
  • RG 14 – Early Bentley History
    • Series 01 - Contains notices for instructors (on policy, grading, etc) as well as various teaching materials.
    • Series 03 – Formal and informal writings on the history of the college provide information about the early recruitment of faculty as well as the teaching experience on Bentley’s Boston campus.
