Abstract:

The study of biology began at the College of New Jersey with the appointment in 1830 of botanist John Torrey into a part-time faculty position; it expanded with the formation of the School of Science in the 1870s; and was established as a department in 1904. The collection primarily consists of the records of the Department of Biology assembled during the tenures of Department Chairmen Edwin G. Conklin and Elmer Butler. Included are correspondence, general subject files, and records pertaining to grants, research endowments, publications, and administrative matters such as budgets and staffing. Also includes sponsored research reports and student grade cards.

Princeton University. Dept. of Biology.

The study of biology began at the College of New Jersey with the appointment in 1830 of botanist John Torrey into a part-time faculty position; it expanded with the formation of the School of Science in the 1870s; and was established as a department in 1904. Four years after the department was formed under the leadership of President Woodrow Wilson and William Berryman Scott, Blair Professor of Geology, Edwin Grant Conklin was appointed as the first full-time chair of the department. With the completion of Guyot Hall in 1910, the Department of Biology was given an official home, which it soon outgrew after a period of rapid growth. In 1960 the Moffett Laboratory was added to the building, and a biology library was formed soon after. Over the years the course of study offered by the Department of Biology has changed frequently to reflect advances in the field and the particular strengths of faculty, and in 1990 the Department was divided into the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, and the Department of Molecular Biology.

The collection primarily consists of the records of the Department of Biology assembled during the tenures of Department Chairmen Edwin G. Conklin and Elmer Butler. Included are correspondence, general subject files, and records pertaining to grants, research endowments, publications, and administrative matters such as budgets and staffing. Also includes sponsored research reports and student grade cards. A group of photographs was added to the collection in 2021.

There is no processing information for this collection prior to 2021. Series 5, Photographs, was added in 2021 by Phoebe Nobles. Series 6, Molecular Biology Department Records, was added in 2022 by Phoebe Nobles.

Arrangement

Photographs arrived without a coherent order, mixed in a box. Many had been stored in interoffice folders, and those were replaced with folders during processing.

Scope and Contents

Photographs are primarily of faculty Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, as well as some photographs of graduate students, field trips, research interests and subjects (plants, animals, microorganisms), diagrams and the occasional campus building. Many seem to have been used for the purposes of printing newsletters and brochures, and are marked up and/or duplicated for such use. The box contains a mix of older material (photographs of faculty of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries) and somewhat more recent material dating from the 1960s to the 1990s, with the bulk probably originating in the 1980s-1990s. The box also contains two small cases of metal instruments, one labeled as being John Bonner's.
