Another Side to LIR (Learning in Retirement). Annual Banquet Address, Rochester Institute of Technology: Celebrating 20 years of RIT’s Institute of Fellows, June 18, 1997

The Paul A. Miller papers consist of materials related to Miller and his professional career. A large portion of the collection is made up of Miller's published works and presentations. Several of these works appeared in professional journals such as Rural Sociology, American Journal of Public Health, and Journal of Higher Education. The presentations are on a variety of topics related to health, education, development, and rural society and span the length of his career. There are also transcripts from presentations Miller made at special events such as retirements, commencements, award ceremonies, and memorial services.

In addition to Miller's professional works, the collection includes files related to specific projects such as the Kellogg National Fellowship Program and the Rochester Urbanarium. These files contain a range of documents including proposals, correspondence, reports, observations, and other miscellaneous items. There is also a section of administrative documents from Miller's time as president of the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT). This includes a series of administrative documents. However, many of these items are located at the West Virginia & Regional History Collection (West Virginia University Libraries).

The collection also contains a series of relevant materials that establish context. For instance, there is a copy of an excerpt from Dane Gordon's history of RIT, Rochester Institute of Technology: Industrial Development and Educational Innovation in an American City. This series also includes photographs from Miller's time in Washington, DC and at RIT, as well as awards and certificates from various organizations.
