David A. Sipfle Papers, 1960-1968 | Carleton College Archives

Scope and Contents: Papers of David Arthur Sipfle (Professor of Philosophy, 1960-  ) pertaining to his non-teaching duties.  Arranged into two series:  Committees and Miscellaneous.  The Committees series is arranged chronologically by committee.  The bulk of the series details the activities of the Faculty Long-Range Planning Committee, including examination of college grading policy, distribution requirements, and integrative courses.  (N.B.  Minutes from the Executive and two other committees were removed from the Sipfle papers to fill in gaps in those committee record groups.  These minutes were neither annotated nor supplemented by correspondence or other documents.)  The Miscellaneous series pertains to Sipfle's work with overseas programs, summer programs, teacher education, and a study of the quality of life in Northfield.
