S.W. Myatt Files, 1927-1957
- Scope and content:
-
The S.W. Myatt Files series contains information about construction on the Duke Campus. Seth W. Myatt served as one of the Directors of the Duke Construction Company, as well as an Assistant to the President. The series contains correspondence, plans, contracts, many architectural drawings and blueprints, and other details related to construction at Duke in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. A large post-war building program was undertaken at Duke from 1946 onward. During this period the growth of science and engineering projects jumped due to increased veteran enrollment in these programs. In addition to the materials mentioned above, the S.W. Myatt series also contains a collection of keys that were used in several Duke buildings.
