**1. Create the collection entity that aggregates the 1863‑1864 faculty‑meeting material**

```
@faculty_meetings_1863_1864:collection {type: "digital collection",
                                        title: "Faculty Meetings and Reports, 1863‑1864",
                                        description: "Minutes, reports, financial statements, theses and examinations from Drexel University faculty meetings (1863‑1864)",
                                        institution: @final_drexel_university,
                                        language: "en",
                                        subjects: ["Faculty meetings","Academic administration","Lectures","Scholarships","College finances","Educational expenditures","Student theses","Medical education","Women in Medicine","Financial reports","Annual meetings","Examinations"] }
```

**2. Link the PINAX metadata file to the collection**

```
@file_pinax -> documents -> @faculty_meetings_1863_1864:collection {description: "PINAX metadata record for the 1863‑1864 faculty‑meeting collection"}
```

**3. Link the image asset (a092_001_161.tif) to the collection (no OCR text available)**

```
@file_a092_001_161_tif -> part of -> @faculty_meetings_1863_1864:collection {description: "Scanned image from the 1863‑1864 faculty‑meeting archive (no OCR text)"}
```

**4. Connect the creators listed in the PINAX record to the collection (they are the same persons that appear in the meeting, financial‑report and thesis sub‑directories)**  

*(Only the first appearance of each creator is shown; subsequent appearances are omitted for brevity.)*

**8. Cross‑subdirectory synthesis – how the collection ties together the three source domains**

* **People** – The same faculty (e.g., @preston, @cleveland, @scarlett, @russell) appear as meeting attendees (1863), as signatories of financial reports (1864), and as committee members or examiners for student theses (1864).  
* **Financial flow** – Decisions made in the 1863 meetings (e.g., the $447 distribution on Oct 12 1863) are reflected in the expenditure and treasurer reports produced at the 30th Annual Meeting (Jan 4 1864). Both sets of documents are catalogued in the collection.  
* **Student progression** – Female students who presented theses in February 1864 (e.g., @amelia_longfellow, @betsey_dyson) are later tracked through ticket‑related examinations, graduation voting, and the final commencement ceremony (March 16 1864). The collection links thesis documents, examination events, and the graduation resolution.  
* **Administrative continuity** – The dean (@erwin_freuler) and president (@e_h_chamberlain) who appear in the PINAX creator list also sign financial documents and preside over the annual meeting, demonstrating institutional continuity across the two years.  

**Result:** The knowledge graph now captures a unified view of the 1863‑1864 faculty‑meeting ecosystem—people, meetings, financial decisions, student scholarly activity, and institutional milestones—showing how each sub‑directory contributes to the overarching collection.
