Frederick Emmons Terman, the first child of Lewis Madison and Anna Terman, was born in English, Indiana on June 7, 1900.
Due to Lewis Terman's chronic tuberculosis, the family sought a more salubrious climate, moving to the Los Angeles area in
1905. With the elder Terman's appointment to the Stanford University Education Department in 1910, the family settled
permanently in the Stanford area.
Lewis Terman, an eminent psychologist and educator, is perhaps best known for his development of the Stanford-Binet
intelligence tests. His work on IQ testing was however, only one aspect of a life-long professional interest in individual
giftedness and leadership. Frederick was undoubtedly influenced by some of his father's concepts, and later integrated
them into his own system of identifying faculty and students of unusual promise, and encouraging the fullest realization of
their potentials. Growing up in an academic environment also instilled an early and thorough understanding of university
operation, later to serve well in Dr. Terman's administrative career.

Childhood at Stanford University had its less serious aspects as well. Dr. Terman recalls hiking in the Stanford foothills,
fishing in Felt Lake, and swimming in Lake Lagunita. At the age of fourteen, Frederick and his neighbor, Herbert Hoover, Jr.,
began experimenting with "ham" radio, resulting in Dr. Terman's life-long involvement with radio.
Nine years old before he began primary school, Dr. Terman progressed rapidly and graduated from Stanford University in
1920 with a degree in Chemistry. After obtaining an additional degree in Electrical Engineering at Stanford under Professor
Harris J. Ryan, Terman went to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for graduate study under Professor Vannevar
Bush. Bush emphasized the practical, industrial applications of engineering in addition to theoretical research.
Upon the completion of his doctorate in electrical engineering in 1924, Dr. Terman accepted a teaching appointment at
M.I.T. Health was to play a decisive role in Frederick Terman's career as it had for his father. While visiting his family at
Stanford in the summer of 1924, he had a serious attack of tuberculosis, keeping him bed-ridden for a year.
For his recovery, the California climate was preferable to Massachusetts, and the following year Dr. Terman accepted a
part-time instructorship in electrical engineering at Stanford University. He continued his convalescence throughout the
academic year of 1925-26, getting up only a few hours each day to teach. Despite serious illness, these years were very
productive. With the intense concentration characterizing all his endeavors, Terman used the time to read extensively the
existing radio engineering literature and to begin drafting his own first book.
In the academic year 1926-27, Terman began full-time teaching at Stanford, specializing in electronics. Although the
electronics laboratory suffered from a severe shortage of funds, in the years between 1926 and 1941, Dr. Terman was able
to build up a program distinctive in its output of ideas, people and publications.
Meanwhile, Dr. Terman's own career was flourishing. In 1937, he became a full professor and executive head of the
Department of Electrical Engineering. Five of his seven books were published and were well received. More than 600,000
copies would be published in nine languages. According to Dr. Terman, his books "reflect his interest in the systematic
organization of knowledge, and his desire to find simple quantitative ways to treat each topic."
He was also active in numerous professional societies, particularly the Institute of Radio Engineers. In 1941 he was elected
President of the I.R.E., a notable honor signifying the growing national visibility of Dr. Terman and the Stanford electronics
program.
Pre-WW II years were significant in his personal life as well. In 1928, he married Sibyl Walcutt, a graduate student in
psychology. Their three sons, Frederick, Terrence and Lewis, were born between 1929 and 1935.
The outbreak of World War II was a turning point for Dr. Terman. He was appointed to organize and direct the Harvard
Radio Research Laboratory, which was responsible for developing countermeasures against enemy radar. This research
project eventually had more than 850 employees. It devised electronic radar jammers; designed tunable receivers for
locating and analyzing radar signals; and manufactured billions of aluminum strips (called "chaff") which confused enemy
radar reception when dropped from airplanes. The Radio Research Laboratory (operating over Europe) was credited with
saving many of the allied bombers, and Dr. Terman was decorated by both the American and British governments for his
wartime efforts.
At the same time that he was directing the Harvard Laboratory, Dr. Terman was educating himself in the strategies of
successful university administration. He benefited by living near the treasurer of Harvard University, from whom he learned
how Harvard's administrative structure and policies contributed to its pre-eminence among universities. Other issues
discussed were the future of government support for university research after the war, and how such funding could best be
utilized. Terman felt World War II had clearly demonstrated the importance of technological superiority in military success,
and as a result, the federal government would place a new priority upon sponsoring advanced engineering research.
Terman returned to Stanford in 1946 as Dean of Engineering. In his new position of responsibility, he was able to carry out
the concepts he had developed for strengthening the engineering program at Stanford. There were three basic components
in his plan: the use of government research contracts; enhancement of the symbiotic relationship between local industry
and the university; and distribution of funds for maximum academic benefit.
The contacts Dr. Terman had made as director of the Harvard Radio Research Laboratory were useful in obtaining the
federal government contracts for Stanford. The newly established Office of Naval Research sought Dr. Terman's assistance,
and with the approval of Stanford president, Donald B. Tresidder, research projects were initiated in chemistry, physics, and
electronics in 1945 and 1947. Terman developed administrative guidelines to assure that sponsored research would
benefit, rather than compete with, the educational mission of the University. Among the important aspects of these
guidelines were that all research projects should be built around the specific interests of individual faculty members, rather
than being obtained by administrators and assigned to the faculty, and that research should actually be carried out by
students and faculty as an integral part of their academic programs rather than being undertaken by professional research
staff as an adjunct to educational goals. The conditions established with these original sponsored projects have continued
as the basis for the successful applied research programs at Stanford.

Dr. Terman had long been opposed to the "ivory tower" image of universities. He recognized the practical and mutual
benefits that could accrue from interaction between industry and academia, and encouraged a closer relationship between
them.
Palo Alto is often called the "birthplace of electronics" in honor of Lee DeForest's pioneering research with the audion tube
in 1912, but when Dr. Terman began his teaching career in the 1920's, there were very few innovative engineering
companies in the Bay Area. Terman was disturbed to find most of his best students moving to the east coast to find jobs. In
the 1930's Professor Terman attempted to ameliorate the situation by helping talented students establish their own small
companies. His greatest success was the Hewlett-Packard company; Terman arranged for a 8500 research assistantship to
bring his former student, David Packard, back from a job at General Electric in New York to collaborate with William
Hewlett, another of his inventive students. Terman was the "godfather" of this and several other student-initiated ventures
that formed the nucleus of the San Francisco Bay Area's industrial development, today's "Silicon Valley."
As Dean of Engineering, Dr. Terman could effectively foster cooperation between Stanford's engineering program and local
research-oriented companies. He encouraged faculty consulting, developed industrial affiliates programs through which
companies could keep informed of the latest scientific developments in their fields, and initiated the Honors Cooperative
Program, allowing employees of local firms to study part-time toward advanced degrees at Stanford. These arrangements
proved to be mutually beneficial. Innovative industries benefited from the intellectual stimulus of a strong university, whose
graduates also provided an exceptionally qualified work force. Programs like the Honors Cooperative became added
recruitment incentives. In return, the Stanford Engineering School received financial support through the affiliates and
cooperative programs. Potential students were attracted by the favorable employment environment as well as academic
excellence. The opening of the Stanford Industrial Park in the 1950's strengthened the university-industry liaison, and the
Stanford pattern has since been emulated throughout the United States.
More important to the Engineering School's development than sponsored research or industrial cooperation was Dr.
Terman's program for obtaining maximum benefit from available resources. As Dean, Terman directed the fiscal policies of
the School. He was firmly committed to the concept of investing in faculty, not in buildings. As an expression of this, he felt
money should be directed towards hiring the finest research-oriented engineers possible. He considered it wasteful to
construct new buildings, filled with expensive equipment, without top-quality scientists to use them. He also felt it was
better economy to pay the high salaries necessary to attract a few leading engineers, than to use the same amount of
money to hire a greater number of mediocre professors at lower salaries. He has compared his strategy to a track team,
saying, "It's better to have one seven-foot jumper on your team than any number of six-foot jumpers.
He called this principle the "steeples of excellence." These steeples consist of very small groups of experts in significant
fields, who by leadership in their professions, can attract grant money, as well as the finest students and junior faculty
members. Terman's formula for the judicious combining of federal money with industrial support propelled the Stanford
Engineering School from a merely regional institution into national prominence.
With his appointment as Provost of Stanford University in 1955, Dr. Terman assumed broader administrative
responsibilities. Although President J. E. Wallace Sterling, historian, and Frederick Terman, engineer, had different academic
backgrounds, they shared similar administrative and educational philosophies. Like Terman, Sterling believed institutional
superiority was based upon the outstanding achievement of individual faculty members. Highest priority was placed upon
hiring and retaining the finest scholar-teachers, and faculty search, selection, and tenure polices were made more rigorous
and competitive at all levels. As can be seen in Series III of this collection, Dr. Terman and his Provost's Office staff kept
meticulously detailed data on the operations of every department throughout the University, including average class sizes,
number of student contacts for each faculty member, Ph.D. output per professor, faculty salaries and anticipated
retirement dates. Dr. Terman often had a fuller knowledge of the workings of a department than did its chairman. These
statistics were invaluable for strengthening and streamlining the academic programs in all areas of Stanford. During the
Sterling-Terman administration, the University experienced unprecedented growth in national academic prominence and
prestige.
Although Dr. Terman retired as Provost in 1965, he has continued to serve as a part-time consultant to the President, and
has designed and carried out several studies on school and department budgets, faculty planning, benefits and retirement.
Dr. Terman has continued to be active in many professional societies, holding elective offices or committee appointments
in the Institute of Radio Engineers, the American Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, the Institute of Electrical
and Electronics Engineers, the National Academy of Engineering, and Sigma Xi.
In keeping with his belief that the United States must maintain technological superiority in a highly competitive world, he
has served as a consultant or advisor for the Institute of Defense Analysis, the Defense Science Board, the President's
Scientific Advisory Committee, and the Navy, Air Force, and Signal Corps.

Since his retirement in 1965, he has devoted particular attention to the development of higher education in science and
engineering, both in the United States and abroad. Among these project have been the Southern Methodist Foundation for
Science and Engineering, the Korean Institute for Advanced Science, and a U.S. Office of Education mission to the U.S.S.R.
Dr. Terman once said, "I most enjoy helping to build something up, taking an unformulated enterprise and making it into
what it could become." Today Stanford University, and the surrounding communities of technical scholars, bear witness to
the continuing influence of that idea.

Scope and Contents
The papers of Frederick Emmons Terman, dating from 1920 to 1978, document all phases of his long and influential career
as an educator, electronics engineer, administrator, and author. The collection consists of nearly 200 boxes of
correspondence, memoranda, minutes, reports, speeches and miscellaneous materials accumulated by Dr. Terman and his
staff throughout his professional life. Because of Dr. Terman's varied career, and the corresponding breadth of this
collection, these papers will be a valuable resource for researchers in many disciplines, including the history of science,
military history, educational administration and even urban development.
The bulk of this collection was donated by Dr. Terman in April, 1977. Since that time, he has continued to send smaller
groups of materials as he no longer needed them. The actual processing of the collection began in December, 1977, and
was completed in the summer of 1980. The project costs were generously underwritten by a grant from Dr. Terman.
The files had been divided between his campus office and his home study. When the papers arrived, they had, for the most
part, already been segregated into discrete groups such as "Provost's Personal Files," and "Institute of Radio Engineer's
Records." In arranging these papers, I have respected Dr. Terman's own organizational scheme as much as possible.
Because the collection is so large and varied, a series structure was devised to provide more convenient access for
researchers. In some cases, such as the "Harvard Radio Research Laboratory Records," the current series is equivalent to
Dr. Terman's own compilation of records on that subject. But in some other cases, such as the "Professional Organizations
Series," several smaller groups of papers were brought together topically as subdivisions of a larger series. Thus, a
researcher with a particular interest in the history of engineering societies, for example, needs only to consult Series IV of
the collection.
Within each series, I have arranged the papers according to their original organization when possible. In some series, this
work was limited to merely rearranging a few misfiled papers. In other groups , the plan of organization was not apparent,
so the folders have been ordered in a manner consistent with the overall structure of the collection.
There are two modes of access to this collection: through the subject-oriented box and folder register; and through the
index of correspondents, both of which are divided by series. The researcher is advised to consult the series descriptions to
determine which are most relevant, and then check through the inventory and index of the appropriate series. This
procedure will insure maximum coverage and accessibility of the collection. The index is available for use in the Stanford
University Archives.

Preface
Frederick Terman ranks as one of the most successful of American administrators of science, engineering, and higher
education in this century, a reputation that has eclipsed his deserved stature as a leading researcher and teacher in the
field of radio engineering. Terman figured prominently in the development of electrical engineering as an academic
discipline, the mobilization of American science and engineering in support of the war effort between 1942 and 1945, and
the rapid growth after the war of an international center of industry based on advances in science and technology which we
know today as the "Silicon Valley." It is fitting that the preservation of Terman's personal, scientific, and administrative
papers should match his other accomplishments as a unique and virtually inexhaustible legacy, this time to historians.
The Terman papers will be approached from a variety of angles, a fact recognized and encouraged by the organization of
this guide. Historians interested in the institutional basis of science and technology in wartime will be drawn to virtually
complete records--including scarce or unpublished administrative histories and technical reports--stemming from Terman's
role as director of the Harvard Radio Research Laboratory. Utilizing documents generated or collected by Terman during his
tenure in a succession of offices at Stanford and within the national engineering community, the historian can trace the
development of numerous organizations in science and engineering, including the Institute of Radio Engineers, the Institute
of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, the President's Scientific Advisory Committee, the Institute for Defense Analysis,
the Stanford Electronics and Microwave Laboratories, and the School of Engineering at Stanford University. As a Stanford
University administrator, most notably as Provost of the University from 1955 until 1965 and consultant to the President of
the University until 1975, Terman formulated a philosophy of faculty selection and research funding based on the notion of
"steeples of excellence." Example's of Terman's application of this philosophy abound in his administrative files, preserved
in this collection, so that the historian will find here a laboratory in which to examine in unusual detail and intimacy how a
broad range of academic disciplines were supported in a particular institutional setting.
Terman's papers are a rich resource regarding the ideas and instruments of science and engineering. His own research,
inventions, teaching, and consulting activities are well documented. Yet, Terman's contemporaries and proteges best
remember him as the man with his finger in every pie and on every pulse; attention to detail, his astonishing memory, and
ready access to voluminous and well-managed files struck most Terman watchers as the keystones of his success as a
judge of talent and recruiter. Terman's carefully organized observations and reports on the careers and work of others
amount to a running reportage on the progress of research at Stanford and numerous other universities and industrial labs;
the reports he prepared as scientific advisor to the Television Shares Management Company between 1948 and 1978
provide a particularly noteworthy example of Terman in his role as commentator on the technical achievements of his day.
As voluminous and complete as the Terman papers may be, additional sources are available to Terman biographers and
historians wishing to investigate his life and times. Foremost among these is a series of interviews with Terman conducted
by Arthur L. Norberg, Charles Susskind, and Roger Hahn, transcripts of which are housed at the Stanford University
Archives and The Bancroft Library of the University of California, Berkeley. Collections of the personal, scientific, and
administrative papers of scientists and engineers associated with Terman and with Stanford University, such as those of
Felix Bloch, William W. Hansen, David Locke Webster, and Leonard Schiff further illuminate many of the events and projects
with which Terman was involved and are housed in the Stanford University Archives, while the papers of Cyril F. Elwell,
housed in the Department of Special Collections of the Stanford University Libraries, provide additional background
material concerning the early development of the electronics industry in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Sincere thanks are due to all whose efforts contributed to this project, especially to Dr. Frederick E. Terman, who made the
generous gift of this collection, and financial support for its processing. In addition, this project would not have been
possible without the work of former University Archivist Ralph Hansen, and the current Archivist Roxanne-Louise Nilan, who
were responsible for arranging the transfer of these papers, and overseeing the complicated logistics accompanying a
collection of this size.
Series I Harvard Radio Research Laboratory 1942-1946
Scope and Content Note
This series consists of correspondence, reports, committee minutes, newspaper and
magazine articles related to Dr. Terman's tenure as director of the Harvard Radio Research
Laboratory during World War II.
This laboratory, which at its peak had approximately 880 employees, was responsible for the
two major aspects of radar countermeasures: first, designing devices to jam or otherwise
confuse enemy radar; and second, to build receivers that would determine the location and
operational characteristics of enemy radar installations. Among the laboratory's inventions
were various transmitters, both air-borne and land-based that would emit electronic signals
to jam radar, and "chaff," strawlike aluminum strips that when dropped in large quantities
from airplanes would reflect radar beams to confuse the radar image. The Harvard Radio
Research Lab was credited with having saved many of the American bombers that operated
over Germany. Its equipment also played an important role in the Normandy invasion.
The laboratory was administered by the National Defense Research Committee, which in
turn was a component of the Office of Scientific Research and Development, created by
President Roosevelt's Executive Order of June 28, 1941. For further information on the
administration and history of the H.R.R.L. and its overseas branch, the American British
Laboratory, see Box 9 of this series.

squares in the net bag were not produced by the Harvard R.R.L., though they
were a type of radar countermeasure.
Box 17, Folder Series II Stanford School of Engineering 1925-1946
Scope and Content Note
Frederick Terman participated in the activates of the Stanford School of Engineering at all
levels, first as a student, and later in-teaching appointments ranging from Instructor in
Communication to Dean of the School. The papers in Series II document his entire range of
professional service to the School. For further information on the history of the Engineering
School at Stanford, see Stanford University Archives collection SC 165, Engineering School
Records.
Boxes 1 -4: Electrical Engineering Correspondence, 1931-46. Alphabetically arranged subject
files of correspondence and memoranda related to Dr. Terman's career as a faculty member,
and from 1937 to 1945, Executive Head of the Department of Engineering.
Boxes 6 -9: Student-faculty research, 1928-35. Laboratory notes, reports, graphs, articles
and correspondence related to research projects undertaken in the Electronic Laboratory
under the direction of Dr. Terman. Some of these projects were collaborative efforts between
Terman and his students, while others were entirely student work. Each folder contains the
papers pertaining to a specific research project, and the folders are filed chronologically.
Boxes 10 -12: I.T.T. invention disclosures, 1936-42. Research notes, reports, and
correspondence related to an agreement with the International Telephone and Telegraph
Company. I.T.T. supported the Communication Laboratory in two ways, First, it provided
grants to underwrite the cost of certain specific research projects that interested the
company. Further, it made an annual lump sum payment to support basic research in the
laboratory. In return, I.T.T. was given "first refusal" rights on any inventions which were
discovered in the course of this research. The general research problems were usually
suggested by Dr. Terman, and worked on by graduate students as assignments of theses. If
any promising ideas arose, they were submitted to I.T.T. as invention disclosures, and the
company determined whether it wished to negotiate for patents. Although no major
inventions resulted from this arrangement, it was very beneficial to Stanford, providing
needed support to the Communication Laboratory in a significant stage of its development.
This group of papers shows an early stage of the University-industry cooperation that Dr.
Terman actively fostered.
Boxes 13 -17: Stanford Electronic Laboratories Correspondence, 1951-5 As Dean of
Engineering, Dr. Terman was also the director of the Stanford Electronics Laboratories, which
consisted of the Electronic Research Laboratory, primarily for unclassified basic research,
sponsored research contracts. These boxes contain the administrative files of the
laboratories, including general correspondence, contracts, personnel and budget
information, arranged alphabetically by subject.
Box 18: Microwave Laboratory Correspondence, 1949-54. The Microwave Laboratory was
administered jointly by the Physics and Electrical Engineering Departments. Edward L.
Ginzton was the director of this laboratory, and most of this box actually consists of copies of
Dr. Ginzton's administrative correspondence made for Terman's information. The folders are
arranged alphabetically by subject.
Box 19: Teaching materials. This box contains syllabi, lecture notes, and course evaluations
for several electric engineering courses taught by Dr. Terman. All of these items are undated
except the evaluations, which date from 1952 to 1954.

Scope and Content Note
Boxes 1-60: Provosts' Personal Papers, 1955-65. These files consist of correspondence,
memoranda, reports and clipping covering all phases of Dr. Terman's activities as Provost.
They were called "personal" by Dr. Terman's office because they were controlled by
Terman's own secretary, rather than being a part of the central President's and Provost's
record group. The contents, however, deal strictly with University-related matters. These
records provide revealing insights into Dr. Terman's philosophy and methods of
strengthening academic departments as well as the general functioning of the highest levels
of university administration. The files are arranged alphabetically by subject, and
chronologically within each folder.
Boxes 61-63: Provost's staff meeting, 1959-65. Agenda, minutes, and supporting documents
for the biweekly meetings of Dr. Terman's office staff.
Boxes 64-67: Studies for the President, 1966-75 Following Dr. Terman's retirement as
Provost in 1965, he continued work part-time as a consultant to the President of the
University. In this capacity, he carried out several studies for President Sterling and his
successors, including control of faculty size, fringe benefits, retirement pensions, and
funding of Stanford's professional schools. These four boxes contain correspondence, data,
working papers and reports related to these studies.
Boxes 68-75: Data processing in the Provost's Office, 1955-75. When the Registrar's Office
computerized its operations in 1955, Dr. Terman saw the opportunity to obtain a vast
amount of statistical data on the educational activities within Stanford. With a grant from the
Ford Foundation, Terman and Professor Robert Oakford were able to program the system to
provide a variety of information in a form that was useful to the Provost. These boxes
contain computer print-outs divided into volumes by topics, which include statistics on
courses taught by each instructor, enrollment statistics, age and salary distribution among
faculty.
Boxes 76-77: Budget working papers, 1955-65. Binders containing memoranda, data, and
calculations compiled by Terman to be used in figuring yearly budgets. Arranged
chronologically.
Box 78: Miscellaneous administrative files, 1948-65.. Folders 1 -7 contain files on graduate
division accounts; and Terman's study of undergraduate education. Folders 8 -13 are
concerned with the search for the successor for Stanford's deceased President Donald B.
Tresidder. Terman was elected to the Faculty Advisory Committee which recommended
presidential candidates to the Board of Trustees. These files contain correspondence,
minutes, agenda, and lists of candidates relevant to this task.

AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS
Series IV Professional Organizations 1934-1977
Scope and Content Note
Box 1: American Institute of Electrical Engineers, 1934-49. Although he was a member of
this group, and served on its Communications Committee, Dr. Terman was not particularly
active in the organization. He was more active in the competing electrical engineering
society, the Institute of Radio Engineers. In 1963, the two groups merged, forming the
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. the A.I.E.E. folders are arranged
alphabetically by subject, and chronologically within each folder.
Boxes 2-4: American Society for Engineering Education, 1946-77. From the time he became
Engineering Dean in 1946 until his appointment as Provost in 1955, Dr. Terman was active in
this society, including serving on its board of directors and holding a vice-presidency. During
his years as Provost, he had little time to participate in the society, but after his retirement
in 1965, became active again. Terman was awarded the Lamme Medal for distinction in
engineering education in 1964, and was elected to the A.S.E.E. Hall of Famein 1968. Since
1969, the Hewlett-Packard Company has sponsored the A.S.E.E.'s Frederick Emmons Terman
Award presented annually to an outstanding young electrical engineering educator. These
files, containing correspondence, minutes, and reports are arranged alphabetically by
subject and chronologically within each folder.
Boxes 5-7: Institute of Electric and Electronics Engineering, 1963-77.
I.E.E.E. was created in 1964 by the merger of A.I.E.E. and I.R.E. Dr. Terman became active in
this group following his retirement in 1965, and was particularly involved in the activities of
the Life Member Fund Committee, serving as its chairman for several years. He was also a
member of the I.E.E.E. History Committee, and developed active cooperation between the
two groups. In addition, he was an editorial advisor to the I.E.E.E. magazine Spectrum from
1973 to 1976. These papers pertain primarily to these three activities. The folders are
arranged alphabetically by subject, and chronologically within each folder.
Boxes 8-16: Institute of Radio Engineers, 1936-52. The I.R.E. was the professional society in
which Dr. Terman was most active, serving on many committees. He was elected president
in 1941, the first Westerner to hold that office. In the course of his presidency, he
restructured-the central offices of the I.R.E., and effected several other significant changes
to upgradeadministrative efficiency. The files are arranged alphabetically by subject, and
chronologically within each folder.
Boxes 17-18: Institute for Science and Technology in New Jersey, 1965-69. This organization
was formed by a group of corporate executives with major research laboratories in northern
New Jersey. They had observed the positive influence of Stanford University on the
surrounding high technology companies, and wished to create a similar environment in their
area. They formed an industry committee to study the feasibility of creating and
underwriting a suitable institution, and engaged Dr. Terman to work out in detail its design
and cost. This proposed educational center was never built, because although most of the
participating companies agreed with the plans in principle, they did not wish to fully commit
themselves financially. The final report that Terman wrote for this project is especially
interesting, for it describes in detail his concept of the ideal university-industry liaison. These
topically arranged files contain background material and general correspondence; Terman's
research and working materials; and his reports.
Boxes 19-26: Sigma Xi, 1955-76. Sigma Xi is a national honorary society similar to Phi Beta
Kappa which emphasizes ability or potential in scientific or technical research. Dr. Terman
has been a full member of the Stanford Chapter since 1924, but these files are concerned
with his more recent involvement in the society, after his retirement from University
administration. He served on the Executive Committee from 1968 to 1976, and was the
national president in 1975. Some of his important duties during this time were site visits to
evaluate campuses wishing to affiliate with Sigma Xi, and presiding over the installation of
new clubs and chapters. The files are arranged alphabetically by subject, and chronologically
within each folder.

BOARD OF FOREIGN SCHOLARSHIPS
Series VI Government-Related Consulting 1944-1975
Scope and Content Note
Dr. Terman has served on numerous advisory boards and technical committees sponsored
by the various branches of the Federal Government, both military and non-military. Although
some of these groups, like the Institute of Defense Analysis were not actually government
agencies, they are included because they operated exclusively on government contracts.
Boxes 1-2: Board of Foreign Scholarships, 1944-75. Chronologically arranged files containing
minutes, agenda, and some correspondence related to this Board, which selects Fulbright
Scholars. The Board is composed of well-known educators who are appointed by the
President. Terman served on the Board from 1960 to 1965, first appointed by President
Eisenhower, and reappointed by President John F. Kennedy.
Boxes 3-7: Institute for Defense Analysis, 1958-73. Chronologically arranged files of minutes,
agenda, correspondence, and annual reports. The I.D.A. was a consortium of universities,
organized in 1955 by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology as a contract operation for
the Department of Defense. The mission of this group was to perform operations research on
topics such as alternatives in weapons systems, and tactics for use of various weapons.
Stanford was a member of the original five-university group that also included M.I.T.,
California Institute of Technology, Tulane University, and Case Western Reserve. Later,
seven more universities were added. Each of the participating institutions had two person on
I.D.A.'s Board of Trustees: the university president or his deputy; and a business officer. Dr.
Terman was appointed by President J.E. Wallace Sterling to serve in the former capacity.
Terman was a member of this board from I.D.A.'s inception in 1955 until mandatory
retirement in 1973.
Boxes 8-9: National Academy of Sciences Battery Additives Committee, 1948-53.
Chronologically arranged correspondence files and test reports. This committee of scientists,
to which Dr. Terman was appointed, was the final arbiter in a controversy, that although
insignificant of itself, assumed national importance due to political circumstances. In the late
1940's, an Oakland businessman named Jess Ritchie began selling a battery additive which
he claimed lengthened the life of automotive batteries, and in some cases could restore
function to dead cells. The National Bureau of Standards tested the additive and reported
that it was useless. Consequently, Ritchie's mailing privileges were withdrawn by the Federal
Trade Commission. Ritchie retaliated with various testimonials and test reports which
purported to show the usefulness of his substance. He charged that the big battery
manufacturers were using the Federal Government to harass him, a small businessman
working in the best interest of the public. The incident became more complicated when
Secretary of Commerce Sinclair Weeks fired Allen V. Austin, head of the National Bureau of
Standards, for his role in the affair. Various congressional hearings resulted, and finally this
N.A.S. committee was set up to evaluate all the evidence and determine if further testing
was necessary. The committee concluded that the material was indeed useless, and that no
further tests were needed.
Boxes 12-14: Naval Research Advisory Committee, 1956-70. Chronologically arranged files
of correspondence, minutes, agenda, and reports. This committee is a group of
approximately ten significant civilian scientists appointed by the Secretary of the Navy to
advise on technical matters. The group reports to the Chief of Naval Operations and the
Chief of Naval Research, the two highest Naval officers. This committee is purely advisory,
but because of the high caliber of its members, usually has considerable influence on Navy
policies. Dr. Terman served on the N.R.A.C. from 1956 to 1964.
Boxes 15-16: President's Scientific Advisory Committee, 1959-71. The Scientific Advisory
Panel was formally established by President Eisenhower soon after the U.S.S.R launched
Sputnick. This panel occasionally sponsored committees to study specific topics in the
national interest, and Dr. Terman was appointed to two of them both dealing with scientific
and engineering manpower and education. These papers, containing correspondence,
minutes, and reports are divided into groups by the committee, and the folders are arranged
alphabetically by topic.
Boxes 17-19: Signal Corps and miscellaneous defense committees, 1948-68. Beginning in
the years following World War II, Dr. Terman served on advisory boards to technical groups
in all branches of the military services, particularly the U.S. Army Signal Corps. These three
boxes contain Terman's files of correspondence, minutes, and reports related to
arranged alphabetically by the name of each working 59

group, and chronologically within each folder.

Box 20: Miscellaneous non-military consulting, 1946-64. Dr. Terman served briefly on several
committees of the Commerce Department and National Bureau of Standards, concerning
such topics as patents, telecommunications, and industrial research and development. The
files in this box are arranged alphabetically by group name, and chronologically within each

Series VII Direct Instruction Costs per Student Credit Hour 1968-1969
Scope and Content Note
Dr. Terman was always concerned with the state of engineering education in the U.S., and
after his retirement in 1965, was able to pursue this interest more actively. This study,
designed and carried out by him in 1968 and 1969, determined the instructional costs per
student credit hour granted in the engineering schools of major colleges throughout the
country. The survey also attempted to correlate these costs with the academic stature of
each institution's engineering program.
Box 1: Contains the survey questionnaires completed and returned to Terman by the
participating schools, and some related Correspondence. This box is arranged alphabetically
by the name of the college.
Box 2, folders 1-3: Correspondence and list of institutions invited to participate in the survey,
but either refused to participate or did not return the questionnaire.
Box 2, folders 4-6: Correspondence requesting copies of Dr. Terman's report on the study,
arranged chronologically.
Box 2, folders 7-8: Tabulated results and working data for the study.
Box 2, folder 9: Articles by, and correspondence with, other researchers studying
engineering education costs.
Researchers interested in engineering education should also see Series X of this collection
for articles and reports on Terman's other educational studies.

In a speech entitled "Education -A Basic Resource for Electronics" delivered at the Oct.
12, 1960 luncheon of the 16th National Electronics Conference held in Chicago, Dr.
Terman pointed out the lack of R & D progress in Chicago area Industry, and how this was
causing industry to lag seriously behind developments on both coasts. This speech
caused considerable comment, both positive and negative. Folder contains typescript of
the speech, copy of it as printed for distribution, correspondence, newspaper clippings,
