Russell A. Stevenson and Predecessors Series, 1916-1960

The Stevenson subgroup (40 linear feet) dates from 1916 to 1960 (primarily 1924 to 1960). Most of its contents were created by Dean Stevenson, but some documents created by his predecessors, Deans Day and Griffin, are also found here. By far the largest and most complex of the four series is the Dean's Administrative Files and Supplemental Administrative Records. Each of these has been further divided, reflecting file orders maintained by the office itself. The Relations with other University Units series as well as the Personal series are relatively straightforward files.

Dean's Administrative Records, 1916-1960

The Dean's Administrative Records, 1916-1960, represents records created by the dean's office in the course of administering the school. It has been divided into two subseries: Alphabetical and Chronological. Alphabetical, 1916-59 (primarily 1924-44) represents papers inherited by Stevenson from his predecessors, deans Day and Griffin. The papers cover a wide variety of topics, but usually in an incomplete manner. Major topics addressed include alumni, faculty and staff, scholarships and fellowships, and students. In a few areas, such as annual reports (both of the dean and to the dean by faculty), and the school's facilities (buildings), Stevenson continued to file into this group of papers. For the most part, however, Stevenson created a separate file which was arranged alphabetically, but broken at regular chronological intervals. Thus the Dean's Administrative sub-series, Chronological, is divided into six units: 1944-48, 1949-51, 1951-53, 1954-July 1956, 1956-1959, and 1959-60. The Chronological file tends to be rather narrowly focused on Stevenson himself, and does not give a broader view of activities within the school.
