SCOUT

A single typescript biography of University of Tennessee Engineering Dean and athlete Nathan W. Dougherty written by his eldest daughter, Marie Dougherty Wellborn. The text provides an extensive and intimate look at Dougherty's life as a student, athlete, professor, coach, dean, and father.

This collection houses galley proofs of manuscripts, notes, articles, speeches, and correspondence documenting N. W. Dougherty's activities after he retired from the University of Tennessee in 1956, including his long association with the Southeastern Conference (SEC). Of particular interest are a group of materials showing Dougherty's induction into the National Football Foundation and Hall of Fame in 1967.
