Dear Josh:

I have your note of November 8, and the question you put
is really a poser.

It used to be the custom for the various schools,--or
divisions, as they were sometimes called,--and departments
to submit an annual report to the President's Office.
Sometimes these were used as raw material for an annual
President's Report. There may be something bearing on

Ed Tatum in some of these reports.

Another possible source might be that of Minutes of the
Board of Trustees, although I should expect the gleaning
here to be rather thin.

In the past when I have been confronted with trying to find
information bearing on questions such as you ask, I invariably
turned to Fred Glover as sleuth and detective, for which role
he has high qualifications. Perhaps Fred could be helpful in
finding answers to the questions you pose.

Iam not at all sure that these suggestions will be very
helpful or productive but they are the best I can produce
off the top of my head.

All best wishes.
