The Office of the Vice President for University Relations was created in 1957 in response
to the New York University Self-Study which recognized a need for coordination between
the university and the community which it served. The Public Relations Department
which oversaw the Office of Publication and Printing and Information Services was
administratively transferred to the Vice President for University Relations when the
new office was established. Arthur L. Brandon held the Office of Vice President for
University Relations from 1957 through December 31, 1963. Arthur Leon Brandon had
been Director of University Relations, a member of the public relations commission
of the Association of American Colleges, and president of the American College Public
Relations Association (ACPRA) from 1944 to 1946. The Office of the Vice President
for University Relations was dissolved in 1965. These records include: correspondence,
memoranda, press releases, reports, and minutes generated by the Office during Brandon's
tenure.
