RECORDS OF THE PRESIDENT'S ASSISTANT,
JEAN MOORE 
1982-1999

RG# 6

 

SERIES II	LIAISON TO THE LEGISLATURE	DATES
2' (4 Boxes)		1984-1998

This series documents Moore's position as URI's Chief Liaison to the Rhode Island State Legislature from 1985-1999.  The records in this series document legislative issues and priorities for higher education. In 1996, Moore became the head of the URI Grassroots Network, a volunteer program dedicated to supporting the University’s government relations and legislative agenda at the community, local, and state levels.  Information contained in folders labeled "Grassroots Network" consists of lists (alumni association executive board, south county delegation, legislators, class agents, etc.), mailings, newsletters  and other documentation of the management of the lobbying group.  Of note, are printed materials and informational packets (1996-1997) utilized for educating both Network members and targeted populations.  In addition to the newsletters,  "Action Alerts" (1996-1998) were sent to the URI constituency; these were updates on upcoming legislation and government relations issues that the Grassroots Network focused upon.  

In her capacity as the primary lobbyist and spokesperson for URI, Moore worked in Rhode Island and Washington on the University's behalf. The records reflect this effort.  The folders entitled "Legislative Event" contain information on the yearly legislative events hosted by URI to raise awareness and address higher education issues.  The records contain information concerning the planning, logistics, and promotion as well as guest lists of legislators and university and other officials.  In addition to these yearly events, the records reflect a variety of activities that include legislator luncheons and basketball games.  

This series is arranged alphabetically by subject and chronologically within the folders.
