The Grateful Dead's version of spring-cleaning will benefit the University of California Santa Cruz, as the college will now house the band's entire archives, including correspondence and memorabilia the Dead accrued while spending decades criss-crossing the world.

Dead members Bob Weir and Mickey Hart are expected to announce the partnership with the university today at San Francisco's Fillmore Auditorium.
