PBU 

 Alphabetically arranged records containing general correspondence and subject files, budgets, contracts, documents concerning development and maintenance of the campus, and documentation of interactions with faculty, administration, alumni, and the world outside Notre Dame. The records of Notre Dame presidents were once numbered in a single sequence throughout the record group, and the four boxes from the Burns presidency are still numbered as if they were part of that sequence, boxes 43 through 46. Eventually they will be reprocessed and renumbered, but for the time being they retain their original numbers, which have been cited in published works.
