Title: Papers of Samuel Baker Woods 1894-1937.

Papers of Woods consist primarily of business, legal, political and personal correspondence. With these are ledgers, journals, and letterpress copybooks pertaining to farming at Arrowhead and the Albemarle Orchard Company. Main topics in the correspondence are livestock sales, farming, insurance sales, property matters, prohibition and the Anti-Saloon League, Virginia and national politics, labor unions and strikes, and the Presbyterian Church including controversies regarding union with the Federal Council of Churches and a Charlottesville, Va., pastor whose theological soundness was questioned. Of interest are three letters from James B. Woods, Presbyterian missionary at Tsingkiangpu General Hospital, Ku, China, concerning hospital work, bandits, and the unstable political situation; a 1931-1932 directory of Albemarle County, Va., public schools, listing "white" and "colored" schools and teachers; and a broadside from L.B. Railey, local candidate for the House of Delegates. J.D. Eggleston, president of Hampden Sydney, is a major correspondent. Many prominent residents of Charlottesville and Albemarle County, Va., are represented by one or two letters as are a few noted national or Virginia political, educational or church leaders.

Rutgers University. Office of the Vice Provost and Dean of the University. Records, 1917-1968.

Title: Records, 1917-1968.

The records of the Vice Provost and Dean of the University, Albert E. Meder, consist of more than 13 cubic feet of papers. They are housed in forty manuscript boxes. The collections spans the years between 1917 and 1968 and relate to the many positions held by Meder at Rutgers. The majority of these papers reflect his administrative duties at Rutgers rather than his professorial duties. The collection largely consists of reports and correspondence. The collection has been divided into three series, which have been arranged alphabetically. The Subject Files series contains documents from 1933 to 1968. The series documents the many academic areas Meder was involved in at Rutgers, with files representing many academic departments and issues. This series also contains the Meder's files on the Middle States Association Evaluation in the 1950s and 1960s. The Committee Files series documents the many committees Meder served on and received reports from during his time at Rutgers. These files span between 1917, predating Meder's arrival at Rutgers, to 1968, the year of his departure. In some cases, the committee names reflect the growing concerns of the times, such as the War Curricula files from the mid 1940s and the Television files from the 1960s. Other more longstanding committee concerns include academic standards and personnel policy. The Name Files series contains the voluminous correspondence to and from Meder to many different members of the Rutgers community between 1943 and 1968. This series also contains memoranda Meder sent out to deans and department heads along with a large number of letters to and from President Mason W. Gross before and during tenures as provost and president of Rutgers.
