Marwell's research concerned the motivations and experiences of volunteers for these groups and projects. He became professor of Sociology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1962 and remained there until his retirement in 2000. Documents in the collection include various interviews, encodings, project planning documents, and correspondence as well as some publications related to the project.
