Title: Dean's Office subject files, 1908-ca. 1950 (inclusive).

The Dean's Office Subject Files consist chiefly of correspondence with parties outside of the Business School concerning the internal operations of the school. As the school's organization became more complex, material previously placed in these files was taken over by the appropriate unit and these files were closed about 1950. The correspondence is arranged alphabetically by subject (topical subject, personal name, or corporate name). Includes seven boxes of supplementary material on faculty trips. These files are also called "Administration Subject Files."
