Historical Note

On August 16, 1947 University of Chicago President Robert M. Hutchins announced the formation of the Committee on Education, Training, and Research in Race Relations. Funded by equal grants of $75,000 from the Carnegie Corporation and the Rockefeller Foundation, the Committee was constituted to be a five-year program under the direction of Louis Wirth, professor of sociology. At its inception the Committee enumerated 5 practical objectives:

1. to design research that would test theories of race relations in order to provide a scientific basis for public policy and programs, as well as for further field research

2. to introduce the social scientific knowledge acquired through this research into both general and adult education curricula, and to instruct teachers how to apply and transmit this knowledge

3. to train professionals, educators, and community leaders in the science of race relations and minority problems

4. to foster national institutional cooperation in research and training in the field of race relations

5. to implement pilot programs to test the findings of race relations research, and to design methods of evaluating existing programs. The Committee worked in cooperation with the American Council on Race Relations at the national level, and with the Industrial Relations Center, the Committee on Communications, and the Committee on Human Development within the academic community at the University of Chicago.

Unlike other committees at the University of Chicago such as the Committee on Human Development and the Committee on Social Thought, the Committee on Education, Training, and Research in Race Relations did not confer degrees. Rather, graduate students in the Division of Social Sciences at both the master’s and Ph.D. level could construct a concentration of course work, or elect to write a thesis with a focus on race relations. Working simultaneously with faculty in their own departments and members of the Committee, such students formed bridges between the social sciences and the Committee.

A major component of the ongoing work of the Committee was preparation and publication of the Inventory of Research in Racial and Cultural Relations. Published with the aid of the American Council on Race Relations, the Inventory was a quarterly bulletin containing abstracts of articles, books, and reports on unpublished research dealing with racial and cultural issues. After a debut issue of June 30, 1948, the Inventory continued production through volume 5, number 3 in 1953.

The original members of the Committee under the direction of Louis Wirth were anthropologists Robert Redfield, Fred Eggan, and Sol Tax, sociologist Everett C. Hughes, education professors Allison Davis and Ralph W. Tyler, and the executive officer of the Industrial Relations Center, Frederick Harbison. Membership fluctuated slightly between 1947 and 1956 and included at various times Kermit Eby, professor of social sciences, Donald T. Campbell, professor of psychology, William C. Bradbury, professor of sociology, and Clyde W. Hart, professor of sociology.

After the death of Louis Wirth in 1952, the Committee extended its work beyond the five year period of its original design under the leadership of Sol Tax. Although the Committee on Education, Training, and Research in Race Relations disbanded in 1956, its educational and research interests continued in the research and mentoring of individual social scientists at the University of Chicago.

Scope Note

The records of the University of Chicago Committee on Education, Training, and Research in Race Relations consists of 18 linear feet and cover the period 1944 to 1962. In addition to the records of the CETRRR, the collection includes the records of two cooperative organizations. Because the information was distinct to these two groups the collection was divided into three separate series. They are:

SERIES I: Committee on Education, Training and Research in Race Relations

SERIES II: American Council on Race Relations

SERIES III: National Organization of Intergroup Relations Officials.

The collection contains correspondence, financial and personnel records, published materials, research project and proposal data, reports and studies, seminar files and committee papers, student recommendations, minutes, charters and by-laws, photographs, and newsletters. It also includes files relating to the Parent Teacher Association, the Sigmund Livingston Fellowship, the Chicago Commission on Human Relations, and the Chicago Community Inventory.

Processing Information note

This collection was surveyed as part of the Black Metropolis Research Consortium's Survey Initiative on 2010 February 2 by Bergis Jules and Lauren Kalal.

This subseries also contains information on contributions, budgets, and expenses.

Subseries 4 contains personnel records of the CETRRR. It includes information on office staff, research assistants, and temporary employees. It also includes personnel associated with the Chicago Housing Authority Ogden Courts Project (1951-1953). Subseries 5 contains student recommendations from 1946 to 1953.

Subseries 6 contains information on research projects and proposals submitted to the CETRRR. The files have been arranged alphabetically and date from 1947-1953. A significant portion of this subseries is devoted to Chicago elementary and high schools and redistricting.

Subseries 7 contains reports and studies produced by the CETRRR. Many of the research projects from Subseries 7 were supported and expanded by the CETRRR. This subseries includes unpublished abstracts, studies and reports from 1947 to 1953. The files have been arranged chronologically.

Subseries 8 contains published articles, pamphlets, and guides on research and programs of the CETRRR. The publications in this subseries have been arranged chronologically. One of the first publications produced by the CETRRR was the of Research in Racial and Cultural Relations. This subseries has been arranged into general publications and files relating to the . This subdivision includes correspondence, questionnaires, research, and a subscription card file.

Subseries 9 contains information on seminars organized by the CETRRR. The files in this subseries have been arranged chronologically according to seminar title.

Subseries 10 contains the minutes and correspondence of the Technical Committee on Intergroup Relations.

Subseries 11 contains pamphlets and yearbooks for the Parent Teachers Association.

Subseries 12 contains applicant files, correspondence and reports for the Sigmund Livingston Fellowships from 1948 to 1950. The Sigmund Livingston Fellowship was awarded by the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith. Named after the League's founder, the fellowship was intended "to advance knowledge of the basic social and psychological processes underlying intergroup relations and prejudice". In 1947-1948 the fellowships were awarded to graduate and post-graduate students of the social sciences at three participating institutions: Harvard University, New York University, and the University of Chicago. At the University of Chicago applications were handled by the CETRRR and fellows worked in the Division of Social Sciences.

Subseries 13 contains correspondence and reports for the Chicago Commission on Human Relations in 1953. This group was a commission of the City of Chicago which is still in existence today. The commission is a neutral body that "handles complaints of discrimination." William Bradbury, of the University of Chicago Sociology Department faculty was appointed to the group in January 1953. Subseries 14 contains information on the Chicago Community . This group was associated with processing census and population data.

Subseries 15 contains minutes, memos and reports of the Society for the Psychological Study of Social Issues. The SPSSI was formed in 1936 at the convention of the American Psychological Association. The SPSSI was "a group of several hundred social psychologists and allied social scientists with a particular interest in research on the psychological aspects of key social issues." The focus was on applied social action, and on making social scientific research accessible to non-specialists without a loss of disciplined thinking. The material in this subseries constitutes informational copies of communications sent to Louis Wirth as chairman of the American Council on Race Relations.

Finally, Subseries 16, Writings of Others, contains reprints of journal articles, journals, booklets, conference papers, and newspapers articles. These files have been arranged chronologically and cover the period 1940 to 1954.

Series II: American Council on Race Relations
Scope and Content

The American Council on Race Relations (ACRR) was a not-for-profit agency formed in 1944 in Chicago, Illinois. Their purpose was "to bring about full democracy in race relations". This was to be accomplished by means of four activities:

1. advancement of knowledge through collection and analysis of research and through original research

2. assisting communities in organizing to meet interracial problems

3. assisting to develop materials to be used in public schools and other educational institutions

4. increasing knowledge about racial groups through popular media. The ACRR published a monthly serial, The Report, a small publication dedicated to dessiminating news and developments in race relations. It also published a number of pamphlets and fact sheets such as the Directory of State Public Agencies in Race Relations. The ACRR served largely as a clearinghouse for information about race relations and as an organizer of research of other agencies. Louis Wirth was elected president in November 1946. The ACRR suspended operations on September 15, 1950 and its residual funds were transferred to the CETRRR.

Series II has been divided into seven subseries.

Subseries 1, Correspondence, has been arranged alphabetically by name of correspondent.

Subseries 2, Minutes and By-laws, contains the charter and minutes for 1944 and the revised by-laws for 1946.

Subseries 3, Financial, has been arranged alphabetically according to the folder heading. This subseries includes accounts, auditors reports, tax forms, insurance and invoices, bank statements, trial balances, and union contracts.

Subseries 4, Personnel, has been further subdivided into employees from 1944 to 1947, 1949 and the Pacific Coast Office. The files are arranged alphabetically according to the name the employee.

Subseries 5 contains research conducted by the ACRR into discrimination in the armed forces.

Subseries 6 contains ACRR newsletter from 1945-1950.

Series III: National Organization of Intergroup Relations Officials
Scope and Content

The National Association of Intergroup Relations Officials was established in November 1947. It developed out of the Council of Executives of Community Relations Boards, which was an informal and unincorporated group of officials of local governmental agencies who were concerned with race relations and minority group problems. NARIO was dependent on the American Council of Race Relations for funding and administrative staff but also received help from the personnel loaned by the Committee on Education, Training and Research in Race Relations. NAIRO outlasted the ACRR, however, it continued to hold conferences until 1953. NAIRO also published a small serial, The NAIRO Reporter, which was issued monthly except in August and September.
