The administrative subject and correspondence file contains comprehensive records from each of TIE's 4 basic divisions: Founders
(1970-1980), has extensive correspondence related to the emergence of the Founders consortium as a distinct entity, its eventual
attempts at restructuring, conference files, recruitment records, and a file sequence of member institutions; Board of Trustees
(1971-1984) correspondence/subject file includes documents relative to Trustees' elections, annual meetings, and general administration;
Assembly (1971-1983) records pertaine to recruitment, featuring file runs of both individual and institutional representative
members; Office of the Executive Director (1967-1985) encompassing the most comprehensive administrative subject file in the
collection, this subseries features the files of the last Executive Director of TIE, Ms. Josephine K. Doherty (these records
are essentially in original provenance). Also included herein are materials on the Fifth Year Review Report, the Nuclear
Winter Conference of 1985, financial records of TIE, and documents relating to the growth, development, and demise of TIE
form 1967 to 1984.
The research proposal and project files form the bulk of the record for TIE. During its fourteen years of research activity,
TIE embraced projects of many sizes, from the small Dynamic Corporation (1982) to the comprehensive work undertaken by the
Environmental Impact Assessment Program (1970-1977) or the Experimental Ecological Reserves Project (1972-1981). Many ecosystems
were examined, from the Clifty Creek Power Plant to global consequences of nuclear war. Numerous funding agencies, both public
and private, opened their resources to TIE, the research consortium best suited to addressing those often multi-disciplinary
questions relating to policy making in the ecological sphere. The distilled essence of the research work of TIE can be found
in the Publications File.
The financial working papers of TIE has been designated transitory, because final record copy of TIE fiscal transactions exist
either in the administrative subject files of the executive director or the individual project files in the research series.
This series is largely composes of budget support and printing invoices. Initial discussion with the TIE representatives yielded
a suggested retention time of two years from the corporate close of TIE activities; after that point, the records were to
be destroyed.
The Ancillary Records to the TIE Archive are comprised of correspondence, working papers, audio tapes, and addenda routed
through Archives offices for response after cessation of TIE corporate activities on June 30, 1984. Included in this file
are requests for jobs, solicitations, requests for publications, and correspondence between TIE representatives and Dr. John
C. Edwards, TIE Archivist. The working papers consist of original monographs of Carol Ebel and E. Gilbert Head, working papers
used in the processing and reorganization of the TIE papers, and in the preparation of the final inventory. Two sets of cassette
audio tapes make up this subseries; Ecology Handbook Conference Tapes-Morgantown/Tulsa 1976 (12 tapes), and TIE History Interview
Tapes 1984-1985 (14 tapes). Addenda will be appended to the TIE Archives as Ancillary Records.
For additional TIE information, you are referred to the R.H. Goodwin Papers, American Heritage Center, University of Wyoming.
Materials in this collection include: Minutes of meetings, memoranda, correspondence and reports (1971-1978), Fifth Year Review
Report, Trustees Handbook (1976), Financial Statements (1972-1977), fund raising correspondence (1976-1977), and foundation
grant requests (1976-1977). Dr. Goodwin was treasurer of TIE from 1975-1977.
