The Timothy Brosnahan, SJ, President's Office Records contain correspondence, clippings, and writings documenting the life and work of Timothy Brosnahan, SJ, the tenth president of Boston College. Correspondents include James Barr Ames, dean of Harvard Law School and party to a controversy over Boston College students' acceptance to Harvard; and J. Havens Richards, SJ, president of Georgetown University. Brosnahan was also involved in a 1900 controversy over an article in the Atlantic Monthly by Harvard University president Charles Eliot about the lack of change in Jesuit education. Dr. Francis Barnes of Cambridge, a Boston College alumni, gave a speech in the Jesuits' defense that was then published, and Father Brosnahan published a rebuttal article to President Eliot's in The Sacred Heart Journal. Clippings in this collection reflect these men's positions in the debate. Also included are clippings regarding a sermon about "unrecognized saints" given by Reverend Robert Walker, an Episcopalian pastor who was involved in the criminal justice system.
