Scope and Contents note
This series contains materials documenting Tranquada's tenure as Chairman of
the Pomona College Board of Trustees, 1991-2000. The bulk of the materials
consists of Tranquada's correspondence files, which document his involvement
with many aspects of college life; his relationship and interaction with
other Board members, donors, administrators, faculty, students, and alumni;
his role as a communications "hub" through which different elements of the
larger college community negotiated issues; and his role as representative
of Pomona College in its complicated and sometimes tense relationship with
the city of Claremont. Particularly prominent themes in the correspondence
files include student, faculty, and Board diversity; "political
correctness"; finances; faculty tenure and salaries; presidential and other
administrative recruitment and salaries; and the development of college
property and resulting conflicts with the Claremont community. Other
materials in the series include records of Tranquada's involvement with the
Nominations Committee, which indentifies and recruits potential members of
the Pomona College Board of Trustees; contracts and other materials
documenting Pomona College President Peter Stanley and his relationship with
the Board of Trustees; and fragmentary materials relating to the college's
capital fundraising campaign.
