Student Papers, A-L

Scope and Contents

From the Series: These boxes contain materials covering Brodie's career at the University of California at Los Angeles. She began as a senior lecturer in history and advanced to full professor of history and biography. She left UCLA in 1977 to devote full time to her biography of Richard Nixon. These boxes contain Brodie's general correspondence and records, lecture notes from various classes she taught, student papers with her comments, and letters of recommendation for students applying for jobs or entering graduate school. This section also includes the notes and lectures she was to have given at the National Defense Academy of Japan. Notes Brodie used in teaching her courses at UCLA vary widely in format--some are neatly typed, almost essays, while others are handwritten notes. They are arranged by course number and title. Within the individual courses, the notes follow Brodie's arrangement where possible (Lecture I, Lecture II, Lecture III, and so on). It is apparent, however, that where material used in one class applied to another, she re-used the notes, and this leads to some confusion. Some of the notes are missing from the collection.
