University of North Carolina Miscellaneous Personal Papers, 1802-1976

The University of North Carolina is the nation's oldest public institution of higher learning, chartered in 1789 and opened for instruction in Chapel Hill, N.C., in 1795. The collection includes miscellaneous letters from students, student autograph albums, notes made by students of lectures by professors, other student notebooks, and other items relating to the University of North Carolina. There are about twelve letters, 1828-1882, dealing with student life and other matters. The ten albums, 1852-1862, sometimes include brief biographical information on students. The notes, chiefly for the 1890s, relate to engineering, chemistry, anatomy, philosophy, and other subjects, and include an apparently unauthorized 1846. Other items include humorous and scatological poems; records, 1894-1898, of the University of North Carolina chapter of the Beta Theta Pi fraternity; and about 2100 pieces of correspondence, 1924-1961, of members of the faculty of the University's Department of History, consisting chiefly of carbon copies of outgoing letters about academic matters. The correspondents include Wallace E. Caldwell, James L. Godfrey, Fletcher M. Green, Cecil S. Johnson, Hugh T. Lefler, Loren C. MacKinney, Carl H. Pegg, J. Carlyle Sitterson, and H. M. Wagstaff. study aid,
