Series XV: RG/G-15-A/O Rutgers Medical School Dean's Raritan Valley Hospital File, 1956-1971

The series is divided into fifteen subseries consisting of correspondence, memoranda, grant proposals, statistics, and reports on and from various hospital committees and divisions. The provenance has been retained which appears to be a loose combination of alphabetical and chronological associations. The original folder titles have been retained; these titles are clear and succinct which aid in alleviating the difficulties produced by the lack of precise provenance. The bulk dates are 1956 to 1971.
