Samuel Tomlinson Arnold (1892-1956), first provost of Brown University, was born in Fall River, Massachusetts, on August 23, 1892, the son of a minister. He graduated from Brown in 1913 with final honors in chemistry, having been a James Manning and a Francis Wayland scholar, a Carpenter Prize speaker, and elected to both Phi Beta Kappa and Sigma Xi. He found time also to take the train to Central Falls to teach evening classes. He stayed on at Brown, earning an A.M. degree in 1914 and a Ph.D. in 1916. He was appointed assistant in chemistry in 1913-14, and was promoted to instructor in 1914, assistant professor in 1917, associate professor in 1922, and full professor in 1930. In 1929 he was Acting Dean of the University during Dean Randall’s leave of absence, with responsibility for the three upper classes of students. In 1930 he was given the new title of Dean of Undergraduates. In 1937 he was named Dean of the College, and in 1946 the title of Dean of the University was revived for him, with a wider meaning as his academic responsibilities now extended to include the Graduate School, Pembroke College, and the Veterans College. In addition to his administrative duties he retained his connection with the Department of Chemistry and the scientific world outside the University. It was because of his wide acquaintance with other scientists and the confidence that they had in him that during the Second World War he was on leave of absence, having been enlisted by President Conant of Harvard for a "vital job on behalf of the War Department." President Wriston acted as dean in his absence. Arnold was working for an agency with the noncommittal name of Manhattan Engineers District of the Corps of Engineers, the "Manhattan project" which produced the atomic bomb. It was his job to recruit scientists from industry and education for the project, an undertaking which depended on the confidence which these people had in him, since he could not tell them the reason that the government required their services. His activities outside the University were many – first president of the Association of Naval NROTC Colleges, vice-president of the National Association of Student Personnel Administrators, president of the Eastern Association of Deans and Advisors of Men, to name a few. He served the community on the State Council of Defense and the Governor’s Committee of Educational Television, and was a trustee of the Rhode Island School of Design and Citizens Saving Bank, and a director of the Narragansett Electric Company. He devoted his life to Brown and the community up to the last minute. On the day of his death, December 22, 1956, he presided at a special Christmas Chapel, conducted business in his office as usual, and was about to attend an evening party for the employees of Citizens Savings Bank, when he suffered a fatal heart attack on his way to his car.

The collection is arranged in eleven series: I. 1945-1948; II. 1948-1952; III. 1952-1954; IV. Miscellaneous; V. Commencement, 1937-54; VI. Commencement, 1955-56; VII. Commencement, 1956; VIII. Navy and NROTC: 1943-47, 1952 IX. 1944/45 and 1945/46; X. 1954-1957; XI. Bigelow-Arnold fraternity file

The Samuel T. Arnold files consist of records related primarily to his role as Dean of the College and Dean of the University. The bulk of these materials derive from the latter position, which he occupied from 1946 until his death in 1956. In addition, the collection includes some limited materials connected to work outside of the University, including his role as president of the Association of Naval ROTC Colleges.

Series I-III, IX, and X consist of topical files organized in chronological groupings. These series are broad in scope and cover the full range of Arnold's responsibilities and interests over the course of his tenure. Each of the series includes materials related to alumni and faculty issues, academic departments, as well as Arnold's service on various committees and associations. Veterans administration can be found in each of the series, with series IX containing the most extensive coverage. There is quite a bit of overlap across the four series.

The miscellaneous series, series IV, contains extensive documentation of Arnold's participation on the Committee on Dramatic Production, as well as student groups and organizations. The remaining series describe larger topics including commencement, Navy ROTC administration, and campus fraternities.

Although Brown University has physical ownership of the collection and the materials contained therein, it does not claim literary rights. Researchers should note that compliance with copyright law is their responsibility. Researchers must determine the owners of the literary rights and obtain any necessary permissions from them.

There are no restrictions on access, except that the collection can only be seen by prior appointment. Some materials may be stored off-site and cannot be produced on the same day on which they are requested.
