1. Records from January 1, 1941 through December 31, 1946 pertaining to the internment of Japanese-Americans and people of Japanese ancestry at the Tule Lake Relocation Center. This "camp" went by many names, including Tulelake Internment Center and others.
2. Records of University of California students, faculty, staff, and affiliates who were interred at the Tule Lake Relocation Center.

I thought we responded this -
Apologies if not. Here's what our Public Affairs specialist in California said:
I'm not aware of anything off hand. I could do some research at the national Archives, but then, so could the FOIA requestor. Our archival records from the 1940s are public and available at NARA-2 in College Park, MD for any researchers who care to examine them.
