http://www2.lib.unc.edu/mss/inv/c/Cooper,Thomas.html

Thomas Cooper, born in London in 1759, immigrated to Pennsylvania in 1794. Well-known for his political beliefs, Cooper eventually pursued a career as a science professor and became the second president of South Carolina College in 1821. The collection contains the scattered papers of Cooper: a letter, 1819, from Abbe Corria de Serra to Cooper about Cooper's appointment at the University of Virginia; a letter, 1819, from Thomas Jefferson to Cooper about Cooper's accommodations at the University of Virginia; and a statement, 1831, by Cooper about college disturbances.
