In 1946, the University of New Brunswick was divided into separate faculties headed by Deans. Dr. Bailey served as the first Dean of Arts from 1946 to 1964 and as the first Head of a separate History Department from 1938 to 1969. This series consists primarily of typescript and handwritten correspondence including application letters for staff positions within the Faculty of Arts. Arts Faculty budgets, departmental statements and reports, curriculum outlines, course outlines and examination papers, departmental requisitions, registration statistics, rules and regulations, Arts Faculty reports and reports and minutes from the Arts Faculty Committee, reports from the Faculty Club and the Registrar, telegrams, invoices, transcripts, and several black and white photographs also form part of the series. As reflected in the material contained in this archival series, Dr. Bailey played an instrumental role in the on-going revision of the Arts Faculty curriculum and in the expansion of humanities and social sciences courses, the establishment of closer links between UNB and the New Brunswick school system, the development of new courses and the expansion of existing programs, and in the building of a strong School of Graduate Studies and the establishment of a research library to support an expanding curriculum. Dr. Bailey was active in expanding the anthropology component of the History Department in 1952, and with the aid of grants from the Carnegie and Rockefeller Foundations, he encouraged the development of New Brunswick studies and the collection and preservation of local materials, thus laying the foundation for the establishment of the UNB Archives and Special Collections Department. The series also contains the 1949 Faculty Arts Report of the Committee on New Courses (Case 10, File 3), which recommended the establishment of a Fine Arts Department, a Department of Music, and a School of Library Science at UNB. The series documents developments within the Department of Education and the establishment of a Business Administration department in 1951. (See Case 10, Files 2 and 4; Case 11, File 5; Case 12, File 1). Dr. Bailey served as a member of the New Brunswick Museum's Advisory Committee to the Department of Canadian History during this time period, and the series also includes several Reports of the Department of Canadian History, submitted by George MacBeath. Among the individuals named in the series are Edward D. Maher, Mary Ellen Milham, Edward M. Bruner, James K. Chapman, J.M.S. Careless, Stephen Patterson, G. Forbes Elliott, and Douglas R. Pullman. Overall arrangement of the series is by key subject groupings such as staff applications, budgets, individual departmental curricula, faculty minutes and faculty regulations. The series title is based on the file contents.
