History
The AP Assembly is an organization of Oakland University's Administrative Professional employees (APs). Its purpose is to organize events, give awards, and otherwise create a sense of community among APs at the university. It was formed in summer 1971. Before that, administrative professional staff had representatives in the University Senate but no formal organization. The AP Assembly's first initiative was to explore ways to improve communication across administrative units and to organize professional development seminars for its members. In 1984 the AP Assembly established its Outstanding Administrative / Professional Award to recognize exceptional contributions of its members.
Scope and Contents note
The AP Assembly records document the entire history of the assembly since 1970. The Administrative Files contain budget materials for the 1987-2007 period, as well as several constitutions and by-laws. The Executive Committee Files include a complete archive of the assembly's Executive Board and Executive Committee memos, meeting agendas and minutes since 1970. Other Committee Files contain miscellaneous records produced by the Advisory , Communication , and Elections Committees. The last two series document the activities organized by the AP Assembly, especially staff development offerings (from the 1970s to the 2000s), events and awards (mostly for the 1980s to 2000s).
