Senatus Academicus minutes

University of Georgia. Senatus Academicus |
|
| |
Dates: |
1799-1842 |
|
| |
Contents: |
This collection consists of the Senatus Academicus' bound handwritten minutes from 1799 to 1842. Inside the back cover of
the Senatus Academicus volume are two documents that illustrate the precarious nature of the historical record. The oldest,
a note from 1857, specifies that President Alonzo Church is to be given custody of the minutes of both the Trustees and the
Senatus, with the exception of the current volume of Senatus minutes that will be kept in the Executive Offices of the state
capitol, then in Milledgeville. Pasted over the 1857 note is an 1893 letter from Governor W. J. Northern to Augustus Longstreet
Hull, the Secretary and Treasurer of the Board of Trustees, regretting that those later Senatus minutes cannot be found "amid
the debris of books, pamphlets, etc., etc., that was brought over to the new state building."
The collection also includes three separate transcriptions that date from the 1930s to the 1970s.
