Abstract
This collection houses annual reports created by the College of Liberal Arts and its subsidiary departments.
Biographical/Historical Note
Although the liberal arts have been taught at the University of Tennessee since its founding in 1794, the College of Liberal Arts was not formed until President Brown Ayres reorganized the University in 1905. This reorganization moderated the earlier emphasis on agricultural and industrial education and put the liberal arts on an equal footing with the other departments. Now known as the College of Arts and Sciences, the program encompasses the departments of Anthropology, Art, Biochemistry and Cellular and Molecular Biology, Botany, Chemistry, Classics, Computer Science, Earth and Planetary Sciences, Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, English, Geography, History, Mathematics, Mathematics (at the UT Space Institute), Microbiology, Modern Foreign Languages and Literatures, Music, Philosophy, Physics (at the UT Space Institute), Physics and Astronomy, Political Science, Psychology, Religious Studies, Sociology, and Theater.
