Papers document Professor Carroll's participation in a radical type of Kibbutzim in Israel in the early 1950s, her earliest community organizing, peace newsletters and grassroot records from local, national and international communities, her course work including early student papers in peace and women studies and development of these new academic fields in the US, her research and publication files and research notes. Especially noteworthy are research projects Professor Carroll and her husband Clint Fink did not complete, e.g. an extensive index cataloging all wars known in human history (as to causes/numbers of victims/consequences), Carroll's unpublished manuscripts, and her conference proceedings of "Common Differences: Feminism and the 'Third World'," the first conference of its kind and one she helped organize at U of I in 1983. Also included are administrative and personal correspondence with colleagues, institutions, and activists, records related to her global and professional engagements and as founding member of various professional organizations.
Also included are some of the chains that Professor Carroll and others used to chain themselves to the steps of the railing of the capitol rotunda in Springfield during their 'Day of Rebellion for ERA' on June 3, 1982.
