Scope and Contents of the Collection The papers of John W. Lederle document chiefly his tenure as the University of Massachusetts' sixteenth president from 1960-1970, a decade of rapid growth resulting in dramatic increases in the number of the University's physical structures; in the variety of its academic programs and offerings; and in the size of its staff, faculty, and student body. The collection spans the years 1947-1983, with the majority of materials dating from the period of Dr. Lederle's presidency, and includes professional correspondence, administrative records, subject files, committee notes, reports, and clippings. Administrative records document the operation of the Amherst Campus as well as the development of two new campuses: the Boston Campus and the Medical School Campus in Worcester. These records provide details about the University's buildings, accreditation, finances, colleges and schools, faculty governance, campus newspapers and radio, cooperation with the Five Colleges, and students, including information on student unrest during the 1960s. Extra-University records document Dr. Lederle's involvement and interactions with governmental and non-governmental organizations at the state, regional, and national levels. In particular, Dr. Lederle was involved with the Board of Higher Education, the Higher Education Facilities Commission, state agencies such as Administration and Finance, the New England Center for Continuing Education, and federal agencies such as the Immigration and Naturalization Service and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The collection also contains Dr. Lederle's personal correspondence, speeches, bibliographies of his writings, biographical information, a transcript of an oral history describing his administration, and materials relating to his professional activities that followed his presidency. Finally, the papers include a series of confidential records consisting mainly of personnel files. These materials are restricted and there is no container list for the series in this finding aid.

Correspondence with friends and colleagues outside the University are arranged by date so that references to events can be more easily located. There is a small quantity of miscellaneous correspondence, mostly in answer to complaints from parents and others, which is arranged alphabetically. A folder of letters to newspapers illustrates the president's public relations skills. Annual reports from 1960 to 1970, speeches and notes, and appointment books complete the material on the presidential years, but there is also information on teaching and university service during Dr. Lederle's tenure as Joseph B.
