George P. Connolly Papers, 1965-1967

Scope and Content Note

The collection consists mainly of correspondence and research regarding site selection. Site Selection Files, Miscellaneous Files, and Southeastern Citizens Alliance follow the process and also bring into play the conflict that evolved as citizens of Kenosha became displaced by the final selection. Another feature of the collection is the comparison of UW-Parkside and UW-Green Bay which was also being built at this time. Fundraising efforts found in the Miscellaneous Files and Committee Files provide lists of names of prominent Kenosha citizens of that time.
