        set lengthOfExtension to (length of (theFile's name extension as text)) + 1
        set fileNameWithoutExtension to text 1 through -(lengthOfExtension + 1) of (theFile's name as text)
        set theFolder to make new folder at folder pathToFolderOfTTUFiles with properties {name:fileNameWithoutExtension}

        set theContentFolder to make new folder at theFolder with properties {name:"content"}
        make new folder at theContentFolder with properties {name:"archive"}
        set theContentDisplayFolder to make new folder at theContentFolder with properties {name:"display"}
        set theMetadataFolder to make new folder at theFolder with properties {name:"metadata"}
        make new folder at theMetadataFolder with properties {name:"archive"}
        set theMetadataDisplayFolder to make new folder at theMetadataFolder with properties {name:"display"}

        move theFile to theContentDisplayFolder
        set pathToCSV to pathToFolderOfTTUFiles & fileNameWithoutExtension & ".csv"
        if exists pathToCSV then move pathToCSV to theMetadataDisplayFolder
    end repeat
end tell
