Arrangement

These lists of folders reflect their physical arrangement.   The records of the 24-year Lowell administration are divided into eight series of three years each.   Folder numbers re-start with each new chronological grouping.

Only the first series, 1909-1914, is in alphabetical order by folder subject.   Even for this series, however, the index, which includes extensive cross-references, may prove more useful to researchers.   The seven chronological series covering 1914/1915 academic year through 1933 are in folder number order.   Researchers are encouraged to use the index rather than these lists.
