description | The Arthur Twining Hadley Papers contain the official correspondence produced by Hadley during his tenure as President of Yale University (1899-1921). The papers are a valuable source for documenting a period in which the University, under Hadley's leadership, was undergoing rapid change and expansion. However, to fully document Hadley's activities as president, other sources must be consulted in conjunction with these papers, e.g., the minutes of the Yale Corporation, the records of the University Treasurer, and especially the papers of University Secretary Anson Phelps Stokes. |
