History / Biographical Note
Historical Notes
This collection contains documents of the Inter-University
Committee on Travel Grants (IUCTG), an organization founded in 1955 to facilitate the
exchange of students and scholars between American universities and the Soviet Union.
When the first inter-university exchanges were established in 1958, the American
universities decided they wanted the program to be run by the universities and since
faculty at Columbia played an integral role in the creation of this program, Columbia
became home to the administrative offices of the IUCTG. Among the notable individuals
involved were Schyler Wallace, Phillip Mosely, Marshall Shulman and other leading
figures at Columbia's Russian Institute. In 1960, the administrative offices of the
IUCTG were moved to Indiana University in 1960, where they remained until the
organization was dissolved into the International Research and Exchanges Board in 1969.
