Box 10: Board of Regents, 1933-1938
Scope and Contents
The Board of Regents series includes correspondence between Reade and the various Chancellors and Regents during his tenure as president. It's dates are 1933-1948. Correspondents include Chancellor Philip Weltner, Chancellor S.V. Sanford, Raymond R. Paty, W. Wilson Noyes, L.R. Siebert, Judson Ward, Board of Regents, A. Hollis Edens, H.T. Healy, Pope Brock, Sandy Beaver, J.C. Dixon, and Dr. George Works. Topics of interest in this series include the WPA projects at GSWC: Senior Hall (now Reade Hall), the Pool, the Library (now Powell Hall), and the Log Cabin. During Reade's tenure the curriculum was examined and overhauled to create GSWC as a liberal arts college, and this series includes information about this study and results of the re-organization. The college's 25th anniversary and Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt's dedication of the library also appear in this correspondence. Most of the correspondence, however, deals with the "nuts and bolts" of running the college.
