Record Group: 10 C Scope and Content Note (A12-65) Historical Note: As early as 1982, there were calls in the College of Agriculture for a separate campus building dedicated to research, teaching, and outreach in Plant Sciences to parallel the functioning of the existing Animal Sciences Research Center. Less than a decade later, Roger Mitchell, Dean of the College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources (CAFNR), formed a committee to pursue the idea of a Plant Biotechnology Building. In 1992, a space study for the Plant Sciences Building was commissioned from Paulien & Associates, and two years later a committee that included G. Michael Chippendale as its convener was charged by the Deans of CAFNR, the School of Medicine, the College of Arts and Science, and the College of Veterinary Medicine with developing a program statement and business plan for a Biosciences Research Center. As a result, in 1995, a plan for a $70 million dollar project was crafted for a Center for Genetic Technologies. In 1997, support from MU Chancellor Richard Wallace for a much-needed interdisciplinary research center led to a new, two-phase construction plan for the Life Sciences Center which now included the College of Engineering and the School of Human Environmental Sciences as participants. This Record Sub-Group is divided by record type and topic into eight series derived in part from the original filing system. Series Eight is based on format alone and its types and topics overlap with those found in Series One through Seven. Correspondence does not have its own series; rather that record type is found throughout the various series in this Sub-Group. Series One contains general administrative records related to the Life Sciences Center. The series is subdivided into two sub-series with Sub-Series One pertaining to the background of the Life Science Center prior to the feasibilty studies of the mid-1990s and Sub-Series Two pertaining to the administrative aspects of the building and Center from ca. 1996 on. Series Two contains records of the various committees established to oversee the planning, design, construction, and operations of the Life Sciences Center. Series Three contains records related to the development efforts and funding for the Life Sciences Center. Series Four contains records pertaining to the director position of the Life Sciences Center. Series Five contains records of the design and construction of the Life Sciences Center and its facilities. Series Six contains funding and other fiscal records of the Life Sciences Center. Series Seven contains presentations made on behalf of the Life Sciences Center throughout its planning and construction. Series Eight contains electronic records created, received, and maintained by Chippendale that pertain to the planning, construction, and administration of the Life Sciences Center. The records in this series include email correspondence, meeting agendas and minutes, goals, proposals, lists, policies, and other similar documents. The series is subdivided into two sub-series with Sub-Series One encompassing electronic mail and its attachments and Sub-Series Two containing all other original electronic documents. Note to Researcher: An attempt has been made during the processing of the records in this sub-group to eliminate duplicate documents and items without compromising the archival record in terms of provenance, original order, and content. Nevertheless, some non-essential duplication still remains in this sub-group, especially in the overlap between paper and electronic records. Series Outline:
