Abstract
L. Jay Oliva (1933-2014) began his career at New York University as a professor of Russian history. He was president of NYU from 1991 to 2002 after spending more than three decades in academic and administrative positions at the University. In addition, Oliva was the co-founder of the George H. Heyman, Jr. Center for Philanthropy and Fundraising and he served as executive producer and chair of the Skirball Center for the Performing Arts. The Records of the Office of the President (Oliva) consist of materials created and collected by Oliva before, during, and after his presidential tenure. These materials include correspondence, speeches and writing, event programs and invitations, reports, and meeting minutes.
Biographical Note
Born in Walden, New York, on September 23, 1933, L. Jay Oliva (1933-2014) received his B.A. from Manhattan College in 1955, and his M.A. (1957) and Ph.D. (1960) from Syracuse University. He began his career at New York University (NYU) in 1960, as a night school history lecturer, becoming a full professor of history in 1969. Around this time, he began to take on administrative responsibilities in addition to his academic duties. From 1970 to 1975, he served as Deputy Vice Chancellor, and from 1971-1972, as Dean of Faculty for the University College of Arts and Science. He then became Vice President for Academic Planning and Services (1975-1977), Vice President for Academic Affairs (1977-1980), Provost and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs (1980-1983), Chancellor and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs (1983-1990), and finally, President (1991-2002). In addition, Oliva was the co-founder of the George H. Heyman, Jr. Center for Philanthropy and Fundraising and he served as executive producer and chair of the Skirball Center for the Performing Arts.
In 1990, the NYU Board of Trustees unanimously elected Oliva as the successor to John Brademas and NYU's 14th president. On November 21, 1991, Oliva became the first faculty member in the institution's 163-year history to be elevated to this position. Oliva's presidential tenure was marked by a major fundraising drive, started by John Brademas, and completed by Oliva five years early. He also completed a second $1 billion campaign in five years. Oliva also focused on transforming NYU from a commuter school into a global university by hiring well-known professors and offering more foreign-study programs. Applications tripled during his tenure. As president, Oliva continued to teach Russian history and served on various boards and committees, including the Institute of International Education (IIE), the University Athletic Association (UAA), and the League of World Universities, for which he was the main organizer. Prior to becoming the president of NYU, Oliva published two books, Misalliance: A Study of French Policy in Russia During the Seven Years' War (1964) and Russia in the Era of Peter the Great (1969); and various articles, including many related to sports, such as "How to Clean Up College Sports (The Washington Post, November 20, 1986), and others related to university-issues, such as "The Dorming of New York City" (The New York Times, January 28, 1989), among others. Oliva was the recipient of numerous awards, such as the Ellis Island Medal of Honor (1992) and a National Italian American Foundation honor (1994), and honorary degrees from Tel Aviv University and Hebrew Union College, among others.
Oliva passed away in 2014.

Processing Information
Decisions regarding arrangement, description, and physical interventions for this collection prior to 2019 are unknown.
At the time of processing, the collection was arranged and described into series and subseries based on the original order and the types of materials.
