I. Press Coverage

The records of the Don Imus Controversy are divided into two series containing forty-two folders. Series I, Press Coverage, contains sixteen folders. Series II, Correspondence, contains twenty-six folders.

The first series contains the transcript of Imus' original radio show, the subsequent Rutgers University statements in response to his comments, and the media coverage of the controversy (including 6 DVDs, Google News search results, and copies of original newspaper articles). The bulk of the material is found in the second series, consisting of emails sent to the Rutgers University President, Richard L. McCormick, in reaction to the controversy, as well as his responses.
