Ruth Clifford Engs was born Ruth Clifford on September 15,
1939 in Ridgway, Pennsylvania to Elinor and Theodore Alexander Clifford
and was later raised in Bethel, Vermont. In 1957, she
graduated from Cushing Academy in Ashburnham, Massachusetts and then enrolled at the
University of Vermont in Burlington, where, in 1961, she
earned a B.A. in Liberal Arts with a major in chemistry and minors in English
literature and biology.
After working as a laboratory assistant to virologist Elmer Pfefferkorn at Harvard
Medical School from 1961 to 1963,
Engs moved briefly to Australia where she worked as a computer programmer, before
moving on to San Francisco, California in July of
1964. In 1968, she earned her degree in nursing
from Merritt College in Oakland Hills, California and in 1970, she received M.S.’s in both Counseling Psychology and Health
Education from the University of Oregon. After earning these degrees, Ruth Engs
moved to Halifax, Nova Scotia where she served as an assistant professor at
Dalhousie University, teaching both health education and nursing courses for a
year.
In 1973, she earned her Ed.D. in Community Health
Education from the University of Tennessee, completing a dissertation entitled "The personality traits and health knowledge of crisis
intervention volunteers in the state of Tennessee." Degree in hand, she
joined the Indiana University faculty as an assistant professor in the Department of
Health and Safety Education in the School of Health, Physical Education and
Recreation. In 1979, she was promoted to the rank of
associate professor in the Department of Applied Health Sciences, and in 1990, she received a promotion to full professor in this
department.
Ruth Engs’ initial research focused on exploring factors for the determinants of
university student drinking behavior. During the 1970s and 1980s, she conducted
research and produced significant scholarship related to this area of concentration,
and frequently collaborated with David Hanson at the State University of New York,
Potsdam. She also published several textbooks during this period, including
Responsible Drug and Alcohol Use
(1979),
Alcohol and Other Drugs:
Self Responsibility
(1987), and
Teaching Health
Education in the Elementary School,
which she co-authored with Molly
Wantz.
She led a committee that developed and produced a thirteen-minute alcohol education
film entitled
Booze and Yous
(1975), and later,
Drinking and
Thinking
(1985). Engs also developed the influential
Student Alcohol Questionnaire which is still used today
to measure college students’ drinking behaviors and knowledge of alcohol. From 1976 to 1988, she served as the
director of the Annual Drug and Alcohol Workshop at Indiana University.
Dr. Engs’ later scholarship shifted focus, as she took an interest in studying the
role of alcohol in society in cross-cultural and historical contexts. As a result of
her research into the history of health reform in America, Engs published
Clean Living Movement: American Cycles of Health Reform
in 2000 and later,
The Progressive
Era Health Reform Movement: A Historical Dictionary
in 2003. Engs' interest in the study of views of health in a
historical context also led to her publication of
The
Eugenics Movement: An Encyclopedia
in 2005.
In 2008, her book
Unseen Upton
Sinclair
explored the previously unpublished writings of author and
reformer Upton Sinclair.
In addition to her published scholarship, Engs also taught Introduction to Health
Counseling, Research Methods, Theories of Addictive Behaviors, Personal Health, and
Epidemiology and Human Diseases. Aside from her work at Indiana University, from
1989 to 1995 Engs served as an
adjunct faculty member at the Union Institute in Cincinnati, Ohio, developing an
undergraduate alcohol and treatment curriculum. From 1999 to 2000, she also served as an adjunct faculty
member for Walden University, for which she developed a distance learning curriculum
for an introductory public health course. Throughout most of the 1980s, Dr.
Engs operated a private stress reduction and self-hypnosis practice.
In 2003, Ruth Engs retired with the title of Professor
Emeritus of Applied Health Science.
The collection is organized into seven series: Research, writing and professional
activities files, Correspondence files, Teaching files, Tenure and administrative
files, Personal materials, Audiovisual and Removable Media, and The Saint Meinrad
Archabbey Projects. The collection has been arranged based upon the original
organization of the papers as received from Ruth Engs.
The Ruth C. Engs papers have been organized into seven main series: Research, writing
and professional activities files: Correspondence; Teaching files; Tenure and
administrative files; Personal materials, Audiovisual and Removable Media and The
Saint Meinrad Archabbey Projects.
The Research, writing and professional activities series is by far the largest in the
collection, containing material that documents Dr. Engs’ research, scholarship,
publications, and participation in professional organizations and activities. This
series includes several subseries, based largely on her original arrangement of the
papers. The first several subseries document Dr. Engs’ research activities,
including files that contain questionnaires, surveys, and data used to support her
scholarship. Another subseries contains drafts and correspondence related to
articles she has written and research she has conducted. The subseries dedicated to
clippings contains copies of newspaper and magazine articles that reference Engs’
scholarship; clippings are organized either by specific scholarly work or by general
time frame.
Subsequent subseries, including Opinions and Editorials; Published Essays and
Articles; Published Research Articles; Dissertation & Master's Thesis, Essays,
Encyclopedia Entries and Pedagogical Publications; Non-Research Presentations;
Research Conference Presentations; Published Books and Book Chapters; Book Files;
and General Book and Publication Files contain copies of scholarly work produced by
Engs. Files may also include correspondence, drafts, notes, and reviews related to a
work of scholarship or a presentation. Similar material related to unpublished or
incomplete research can be found in the subseries titled Unpublished Handouts;
Unpublished or Not Accepted Essays or Op-Eds; Unpublished or Not Accepted Research
Articles/Book Chapters/Books; Unaccepted Book Proposals; and Not Started or
Incomplete Research.
The Conference Programs and Proceedings subseries contains printed programs,
proceedings, and other materials related to professional conferences attended by
Engs. The Original Artwork, Photographs, and Illustrations subseries contains visual
materials created, designed, or used by Engs in publications over the course of her
professional career. The Service Committees and Projects subseries contains material
documenting her participation in professional organizations. The Grant Proposals and
Award Submissions subseries contains documentation related to the preparation of
proposals for grants and awards. The subseries entitled Workshop Presentation &
Outline Files contains materials related to workshop presentations designed and
given by Ruth Engs. Finally, the Reviews Written by Ruth Engs subseries contains
copies of reviews written by Engs on other individuals’ scholarly contributions.
The second series, Correspondence files, consists of correspondence files maintained
by Engs during her academic career and is arranged alphabetically by correspondent
or subject. A set of correspondence files organized generally by decade can be found
in the General Correspondence files within this series. Prominent correspondents
include David Hanson, Frank McCloskey, and Dennis Daniels.
Teaching files is the third series of the collection and contains Prof. Engs’
teaching materials, including syllabi, handouts, exam materials, visual materials,
slides, and notes. The series contains four subseries, with each subseries devoted
to teaching materials from Indiana University, the US Army Reserves, the Union
Institute, and Walden University. The Indiana University subseries, which is by far
the largest, contains general teaching materials, as well as teaching materials
organized by course. Courses include Personal Health, Human Diseases and
Epidemiology, Nature of Addictive Behaviors, and Introduction to Health Counseling.
The subseries for the US Army Reserves, the Union Institute, and Walden University
all contain a small quantity of general teaching and curriculum files.
The fourth series, Tenure and administrative files, contains records relating to
tenure and other administrative activities during Engs’ career. Included are tenure
and promotion evaluations as well as CVs, annual reports, and sabbatical
applications. Many of the files in this series are closed to researchers at this
time.
The fifth series, Personal materials, includes photographs, writings from her early
life, and biographical materials and clippings.
The sixth series, Audiovisual and Removable Media, includes recordings of lectures
given by Dr. Engs and several copies of her film
Booze and
Yous.
The seventh and final series, The Saint Meinrad Archabbey Projects, includes two
subseries. Booklets, Essays, and Drafts contains materials regarding the history of
the Archabbey and finding aids created by Eng.
Conversations
in the Abbey
contains transcripts, drafts, essays, biographies of the
monks of the Order of Saint Benedict (OSB), and other materials relating to her
book.
