520 2 |a The meeting minutes in this series document the administration of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (GSAS) from July 9, 1943 to November 1, 1945. Additionally, the minutes illustrate the impact of World War II on Harvard University, particularly the disruption of the typical student admission procedure. The minutes contain letters, memos, and committee reports. Faculty interviews examine the academic situation of departments such as music, teaching, astronomy, Semitic, political economy, and government. Topics addressed include student admissions and enrollment, the entrance of international students to Harvard, awarding of fellowships and scholarships, professional opportunities for women, rules related to the issuing of doctoral degrees, graduate housing, the post-war integration of veterans to graduate school, and general organizational matters. The minutes reflect the evolution, methods, and issues associated with graduate education at Harvard in the 1940s

545 1 |a The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (GSAS) was formally created as the Graduate Department of Harvard University in 1872. The department was renamed the Graduate School of Harvard University in 1890 during an administrative reorganization of the College. In 1905, the name was changed to the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences to distinguish it more clearly from the professional schools. In 1962, women were allowed to enroll in the GSAS. The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences is the largest of the twelve graduate schools at Harvard University. The GSAS is responsible for most of Harvard's graduate degree programs in the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences. The school offers Master of Arts (AM), Master of Science (SM), and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degrees in approximately 58 disciplines. The GSAS forms part of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, along with Harvard College, the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, and the Harvard Division of Continuing Education
