Scope and Content
This archive holds historically significant official papers of the Presidents of Asheville-Biltmore College, and its predecessors, between 1927 and 1962, although the majority of documents cover the presidency of Dr. Glenn Bushey (1947 - 1962). Key subjects include the plan to improve the campus on Sunset Mountain, aka "Seely's Castle", and the subsequent purchase and development of the current campus. There is a close correlation to UA Series 10.
