The first President of what was then Indiana College was elected by the Board of Trustees in 1829. William Lowe Bryan served as president of Indiana University 1902-1937. Collection consists almost entirely of incoming correspondence from Bryan's early presidency, 1902-1913. The files are arranged alphabetically, most often by the name of the individual writing to the university, but also by subject or by name of the institution or department. Approximately half of the correspondence is addressed to Bryan while the remaining half is addressed to other high ranking IU administrators such as Registrar John W. Cravens or University Secretary Ulysses Howe Smith.
