Historical Sketch:
The Two-Unit Committee was established to oversee the Two-Unit Plan which was created in 1935. The program was designed to give exceptional students the opportunity to pursue a desired field of study at the commencement of college. Students in the Two-Unit Plan lived together in a separate dormitory, but were otherwise members of the College community. The Committee monitored student progress, arranged their housing, and acted as advisors for enrolled students.

Description of Records:
The records contain reports, memoranda, and a petition. The petition from students concerns lengthening Thanksgiving recess, and signed by hundreds of students. Other information includes scholarships for students enrolled in the program , lists of the distribution of interests in students, and recommendations for changes in policy.
