Also included are examination papers, academic writings, extra-curricular interests, and miscellaneous related papers. Finally, there are several papers from his tenure as board member at the T.W. Wood Gallery, Montpelier, Vermont, 1987-1990. While there is little in the collection of a personal nature, there is much that depicts Hathaway's intellectual life as a developing scholar and thinker. The first series consists of class lecture notes, examination papers and other related papers from 18 of Hathaway's undergraduate courses while at Bates College, 1951-1955. They are arranged alpha-numerically by subject and course level as well as could be determined. In a few instances, class notes or exams are present which do not appear to have been written by Hathaway. The second series consists of three major academic papers in draft form written by Hathaway, all undated and unsigned, including outlines and notes. A paper on pre-Hitler Germany is believed to be his Bates Senior Thesis. The other two papers, one on the Truman-Dewey election of 1948 and one on Arnold Toynbee's view of history, cannot be definitively placed in time or space, but the handwriting identifies them as Hathaway's work. The third series contains miscellaneous papers from Hathaway's Bates College years. One group illustrates Hathaway's extra-curricular interest in debating and world affairs. Also found in this series are the few papers of a more personal nature in the form of letters, resolutions, and notes to himself. Copies of Hathaway's original folder covers containing notations have been included in this series. The fourth series consists of papers related to Hathaway's tenure as member of the board of the T.W. Wood Art Gallery, Montpelier, Vermont, 1987-1990, including his reports on the annual auction, correspondence, and T. W. Wood Art Gallery financial information.

(16 boxes)This collection documents Wendell Wray's life and work. It includes a wide variety of materials and formats related to his career and his personal interests.

As an African American librarian and scholar, Wray was acutely aware of documenting his own life as part of a larger historical trajectory, and this collection indicates that he was very successful in this endeavor.
