This collection is arranged in five series to reflect the terms of Barnard's deans and chronological therein.
Series 1. Emily James Smith (Putnam), Dean, 1894-1900
Series 2. Laura Drake Gill, Dean, 1901-1907
Series 3. William Tenney Brewster, Acting Dean, 1907-1910
Series 4. Virginia Crocheron Gildersleeve, 1911-1947
Series 5. Millicent Carey McIntosh, 1947-1952
Boxes titled with a date range adhere to a filing scheme outling the material's organization by subject.
The title of Dean changed to President during Millicent Mcintosh's term in 1952, and material beginning with the '52-'53 school year has been moved to the President's Office Records, BC 5.22. During this period of transition the titles of "Dean" and "President" were used interchangeably.
