The Charles H. Wharton papers are comprised primarily of Dr. Wharton's investigations of bottomland forests and wetlands and
the effects of stream channelization. He studied many river systems in the Southeastern United States including the Alcovy,
a tributary of the Ocmulgee, the Altamaha, the Chattahoochee, the Flint, the Nantahala, the Savannah, and the Tallulah. Swamps
which benefitted from his research and advocacy include the Atchafalaya in Louisiana and the Congaree in South Carolina.
He is best known for his pioneering work The Natural Environments of Georgia.
In 1951 and 1952, Dr. Wharton travelled to southeast Asia to conduct a brief study of the kouprey, a species of wild cattle
endemic to Cambodia. Photographs, notes, and correspondence related to that trip are included in the collection. Dr. Wharton's
research culminated into a documentary, The Wild Cattle of Cambodia, which was released in 1957.

Caldwell, Harmon White |

Dates: |

|
| |
Contents: |
The Caldwell papers represent the emergence of the modern executive philosophy guiding the modern State University. Because,
for the first time, a filing schema has survived intact, there has been no need for reorganization of the papers to facilitate
user access, and the original provenance has thus been more or less preserved. The papers break down into four broad series
as follows: Series 1: Administrative Subject/Correspondence File 1927-1949. This series encompasses the fullest scope of
Caldwell's myriad duties as University President, and comprises 75% by bulk of the volume of the collection. Included are
extended subseries treating the University building program, the "Cocking Affair", the higher education of blacks in Georgia,
the emerging Landscape Architecture program, the increasing role of agricultural research in the postwar South, the early
standardization of Senior Class rings, the emergence of the University Center in Georgia, the vitality of the newly created
University of Georgia Press, and the WPA Georgia Writers Project. Series 2: Board of Regents Files 1932-1949. This series
documents interactions between Caldwell as University President and the state Board of Regents. Series 3: Wartime Administrative
Files, 1940-1948. This series follows the multiple hats which Caldwell wore in his various roles in support of America's involvement
in World War II. It is further organized into separate sub-series covering the following specific functions: Civilian Defense/Selective
Service/U.S. Armed Forces/War Program/Army Specialized Training Corps/Navy Training School/Personnel-Savannah Unit. Series
4: UGA Personnel Files 1937-1950. This is an alpha-ordered set of University personnel files for the indicated years (it
is not comprehensive).

note
While the chronological bulk of the records from the Frederick C. Davison Papers covers his tenure as President of the University
of Georgia from 1967 to 1986, there are also documents to be found in the papers dating from as early as 1937 and as recently
as 1988. The broad groupings within the Davison papers do not break geographically into cohesive series, beyond certain interactions
with entities such as the university system Board of Regents, but it is fair to characterize several broad subject categories
as series by virtue of the volume of records present in the accession. It should be noted that the location of records within
certain of these series may well not be confined to a single geography within the larger body of Davison records. 1) Administrative
Interactions with Deans and Vice Presidents 2) Athletics 3) Correspondence File 4) Developmental Studies 5) Inaugural Files.
6) Speeches 7) Student Affairs/Student Unrest 8) University of Georgia Bicentennial 9) University System of Georgia/Board
of Regents.
