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.
