Abstract:

Dean E. Walker served as the president of Milligan College (now Milligan University) from 1950 to 1968. This collection is mostly from his time as present of Milligan, including correspondence, records, reports, and information on the college.

Biographical Note:

Dean Everest Walker (1898-1988) was a preacher, church historian, and academic administrator from the Christian Churches/Churches of Christ. Walker earned degrees from Bethany College (B.A.), Tri-Cities College (B.A.) and Butler University (B.D., M.A.) After a season of doctoral study at the University of Edinburgh, Walker taught church history at Butler University from 1926 to 1950. That year he became president of Milligan College (now Milligan University), where he would play an important role in bringing the institution financial stability and regional accreditation. In 1956, Walker became the founding president of Emmanuel School of Religion until 1969, when he resumed teaching church history for eighteen more years at Emmanuel. He died two years later. (Written by Matthew Richardson)

“Dr. Dean E. Walker came to the presidency in January 1950 from a 25 year professorship at the Butler University School of Religion. Recognizing the need of the small college to play an increasingly large part in the educational program of the country, the College adopted a long-range development program. Students were enlisted from a larger area, encompassing most of the States and several foreign countries.

During Dr. Walker’s administration the campus was expanded to more than 135 acres of land. New buildings included the Student Union Building, Sutton Hall, Webb Hall, the P.H. Welshimer Memorial Library, the Seeger Memorial Chapel, and Hart Hall.

On November 1, 1960, Milligan received the Quality Improvement Award administered by the Association of American Colleges for the United States Steel Foundation. On December 1, 1960, Milligan College was admitted into membership in the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.” (https://www.milligan.edu/about/history/)

Arrangement:

It is unknown when the Dean Walker Presidential Papers came into the archives at Milligan. The oldest finding aid in archives files lists an accession number from 1985 but notes that the year of accession is unknown. A second accession number was recorded in 2007 simply to record an accession number and assign a collection number. Box lists date back to at least 1999 in the archives internal files. At some point, it appears that there were 47 cubic foot boxes (record boxes) that were then divided up into manuscript boxes. In 2023, partially as part of space rearrangement of the archives, archivist Katherine Banks reboxed the collection into cubic foot boxes and at the same time, identified series and rearranged folders as necessary.

The new arrangement is as follows:
