*The graph above captures the metadata of the two files, aligns recurring individuals across years, maps the chronological chain of faculty meetings leading to the 1863 Commencement, and highlights key decisions that flow from one sub‑directory to another.*# Reorganization Summary
The files were organized based on the content of the meeting minutes and events they describe. Primary groupings were created around specific years (1861 and 1863) and events (commencement in 1863). Additional groups were formed for topics that spanned multiple meetings, such as student admissions and financial matters. Files without OCR content were grouped based on their filenames, which indicate they belong to the same sequence as their corresponding content-rich files. One file ('a092_001_156.tif.ref.json') remained ungrouped due to insufficient context to assign it to a logical group.
## Groups Created
- **Faculty_Meeting_Minutes_1861**: Files containing minutes from faculty meetings held in 1861, including discussions on commencement, committee reports, and administrative decisions.
- **Faculty_Meeting_Minutes_1863**: Files containing minutes from faculty meetings held in 1863, including discussions on lectures, student admissions, and financial matters.
- **Commencement_1863**: Files related to the commencement ceremony held in 1863, including details about the event, faculty members, and graduates.
- **Student_Admissions_and_Financials_1863**: Files discussing student admissions, scholarships, and financial arrangements in 1863.
