| Abstract | The Vice Chancellor for Health Affairs (later Vice Provost for Health Affairs) was administrative head of the university's Division of Health Affairs, created in 1948 as the Division of Health and Medical Affairs. It consisted of the schools of Dentistry, Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, and Public Health and centers, institutes, and programs engaged in research and public service, including the Carolina Population Center, the Child Development Institute, the Frank Porter Graham Child Development Center, the Research and Training Center on Blindness, and others. The vice chancellor was also the liaison between the chancellor and the various deans and directors of these units. From its opening in 1952 until 1956, North Carolina Memorial Hospital was administratively under the administrator for Health Affairs. From 1956 to 1971, it reported directly to the dean of the School of Medicine; since 1971, it has been governed by an appointed Board of Directors. In April 1996, the vice chancellor's title changed to Vice Provost for Health Affairs. In 1997, the position was eliminated, and the division's various units began reporting to the university's provost. The records include correspondence and other files relating to the administration of and programs in the Division of Health Affairs at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Annual reports of the schools of Medicine, Pharmacy, and Public Health date to the 1930s. Of particular interest are files, 1946-1963, relating to the North Carolina Medical Care Commission, a state agency that promoted hospital construction, medical education, and health insurance for rural citizens. Also of interest are files, 1965-1975, concerning the East Carolina University-University of North Carolina Cooperative Committee on Medical Education, which helped plan the School of Medicine at East Carolina University. Division of Health Affairs heads who figure significantly in these records include Henry Toole Clark Jr., G. Philip Manire, C. Arden Miller, Cecil G. Sheps, Christopher C. Fordham, James R. Turner, and H. Garland Hershey. The Addition of January 2013 includes files of Vice Provost for Health Affairs H. Garland Hershey, chiefly 1996-1997, and some files of Associate Provost Edward F. Brooks, 1997-2001. Brooks assumed oversight of the day-to-day operations of the Health Affairs units following Hershey's resignation. |

Historical Information
The Vice Chancellor for Health Affairs was administrative head of the university's Division of Health Affairs, created in 1948 as the Division of Health and Medical Affairs. It consisted of the schools of Dentistry, Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, and Public Health and centers, institutes, and programs engaged in research and public service, including the Carolina Population Center, the Child Development Institute, the Frank Porter Graham Child Development Center, the Research and Training Center on Blindness, and others. The vice chancellor was also the liaison between the chancellor and the various deans and directors of these units. From its opening in 1952 until 1956, North Carolina Memorial Hospital was administratively under the administrator for Health Affairs. From 1956 to 1971, it reported directly to the dean of the School of Medicine; since 1971, it has been governed by an appointed Board of Directors. The division's chief officers have had various titles, Vice Chancellor for Health Affairs being the one of longest duration. Until 1996, the head of the Division of Health Affairs reported directly to the chancellor. A listing of the heads of the division along with their titles and tenures follows.
| 15 September 1949-30 June 1950 | Edward Grafton McGavran, Acting Administrator of Health and Medical Affairs |
| 1 July 1950-31 August 1965 | Henry Toole Clark Jr., Administrator, Division of Medical Affairs (successive title changes to Health Sciences and Health Affairs) |
| 1 September 1965-30 June 1966 | George Philip Manire, Assistant Vice Chancellor for Health Affairs |
| 1 July 1966-30 June 1970 | C. Arden Miller, Vice Chancellor for Health Affairs |
| 1 July 1970-31 December 1976 | Cecil George Sheps, Vice Chancellor for Health Sciences |
| 1 January 1977-8 February 1980 | Christopher Columbus Fordham, Vice Chancellor for Health Affairs |
| 1 March 1980-15 November 1982 | James R. Turner, Associate Vice Chancellor for Health Affairs |
| 15 November 1982-11 November 1983 | James R. Turner, Vice Chancellor for Health Affairs |
| 14 November 1983-April 1996 | H. Garland Hershey, Vice Chancellor for Health Affairs |
| April 1996-September, 1997 | H. Garland Hershey, Vice Provost for Health Affairs |
In 1989, Vice Chancellor Hershey became Vice Chancellor for Health Affairs and Vice Provost. This title change was not the result of any change in the structure of the Division of Health Affairs but rather a reorganization of the Office of Provost. Under this reorganization, the provost and the vice chancellor for Health Affairs worked together to consolidate oversight of all educational activities that served the entire university. This arrangement continued until April 1996, when the provost was designated the university's chief academic officer. At that time, Hershey's title was changed to Vice Provost for Health Affairs, and he began reporting to the provost rather than to the chancellor. In September 1997, when Hershey returned to teaching, the position of Vice Provost for Health Affairs was eliminated; the Health Affairs deans and directors then began reporting to Associate Provost Edward F. Brooks on matters concerning day-to-day functions, while reporting to the provost on broader issues.

Scope and Content
The records include correspondence and other files relating to the administration of and programs in the Division of Health Affairs at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Annual reports of the School of Medicine, School of Pharmacy, and School of Public Health date to the 1930s. Of particular interest are files, 1946-1963, relating to the North Carolina Medical Care Commission, a state agency that promoted hospital construction, medical education, and health insurance for rural citizens. Also of interest are files, 1965-1975, concerning the East Carolina University-University of North Carolina Cooperative Committee on Medical Education, which helped plan the East Carolina University School of Medicine. Division of Health Affairs heads who figure significantly in these records include Henry Toole Clark Jr., G. Philip Manire, C. Arden Miller, Cecil G. Sheps, Christopher C. Fordham, James R. Turner, and H. Garland Hershey.
The Addition of January 2013 consists of files of Vice Provost for Health Affairs H. Garland Hershey, chiefly 1996-1997, and of Associate Provost Edward F. (Ned) Brooks, 1997-2001. A few files include earlier and/or later materials. When the position of Vice Provost for Health Affairs was eliminated in 1997, Brooks, who had worked under Hershey since 1986, assumed oversight of the day-to-day operations of the Health Affairs units. Thus, Brooks's files are essentially continuations of Hershey's and, therefore, are included here. The Addition is similar in content to the original accession and includes correspondence and other administrative records related to the units comprising the Division of Health Affairs and to various campuswide issues and initiatives with which Vice Provost Hershey and Associate Provost Brooks were involved.

Series 4. School of Medicine.
The original School of Medicine opened in 1879, operating on the preceptorial system. This system, however, proved impractical and the school discontinued operation in 1885. In 1890, formal instruction in preclinical subjects was approved and the school reopened. In 1900 it was officially incorporated into the university. During the years 1902-1910, a four-year course of instruction was offered, the last two years devoted to clinical subjects in Raleigh. In 1910 the Raleigh branch and the clinical instruction were abandoned, but the two-year School of Basic Sciences in Medicine continued operation. As early as 1920, Dean Isaac Manning began to push for the expansion of the two-year curriculum to a four-year one. The Board of Trustees backed him, but the idea failed to materialize. Then, in 1924, Duke University established its medical school.
In 1944 Governor Broughton appointed a Commission on Hospital and Medical Care to study the state's medical care needs. On 11 October 1944, that commission submitted a report, one recommendation of which was the establishment of a four-year, state-supported medical school and teaching hospital. In March of the following year the state set up a permanent commission, the North Carolina Medical Care Commission, which continued the study of the state's health care needs, particularly in relation to hospitals. In 1946 the North Carolina Medical Care Commission reported to the governor, recommending that a state-supported four-year medical school be located at the University in Chapel Hill. Finally, in 1947, the North Carolina General Assembly appropriated funds for the expansion. The resulting University Medical Center opened in the fall of 1952 with the admission of patients to its hospital in September and the admission of the first junior class in October. The following have served as dean of the School of Medicine:
| 1879-1885 | Thomas W. Harris |
| 1890-1905 | Richard Whitehead |
| 1905-1933 | Isaac Hall Manning |

Series 6. School of Pharmacy.
Instruction in pharmacy was offered in the School of Medicine during the periods 1880-1885 and 1890-1894. In response to the urgent requests of the state's pharmacists, the School of Pharmacy was established in 1897. Although not directly mentioned in the North Carolina Medical Care Commission's 1946 report, the school nevertheless developed concurrently with the University Medical Center. The dedication of the new pharmacy building in 1960 provided a stimulus for new programs resulting in master's and doctoral curricula and an expanded continuing education effort. The following have served as dean of the School of Pharmacy:
| 1897-1931 | Edward Vernon Howell |
| 1931-1946 | John Grover Beard |

Series 7. School of Public Health.
In 1936 a Division of Public Health was established in the university's School of Medicine. The division was given the status of a separate school in 1940. The original departments of the school were Epidemiology, Parasitology (changed in 1968 to Parasitology and Laboratory Practice), Public Health Administration (changed to Health Administration in 1969), and Sanitary Engineering (changed to Environmental Sciences and Engineering in 1962). Additional departments of Biostatistics, Health Education, Maternal and Child Health, Public Health Nursing, Nutrition, and Mental Health were later established as well as a broad program of Continuing Education and Field Service. The departments conduct programs of local, state, regional, national, and international scope. The following have served as dean of the School of Public Health:

Series 8. North Carolina Memorial Hospital.
The development of North Carolina Memorial Hospital has been closely entwined with that of the university's School of Medicine (see the introduction to Series 4, School of Medicine). As a result of the North Carolina Medical Care Commission's 1946 recommendations, the hospital was established as a part of the University Medical Center, providing patient care and teaching facilities for the newly-expanded, four-year medical school.
Initially, the director of the hospital reported to the administrator for the Division of Health Affairs; however, from the time of the hospital's opening in 1952, there was disagreement about its relation to the School of Medicine, both administratively and financially. After years of heated discussion and poor financial performance, the hospital was placed under the administrative control of the dean of the School of Medicine in 1956. Hospital finances continued to be a problem throughout the rest of the 1950s and 1960s, however. In 1969, a Task Force on the Governance of North Carolina Memorial Hospital was commissioned to investigate the problems and to develop a new plan for the hospital's management.
In July 1971 the North Carolina General Assembly approved the task force's recommendations as submitted by the Consolidated University Board of Trustees and passed a new act of incorporation for the hospital. This statute placed governance of the hospital in an appointive Board of Directors that would supervise the work of the hospital director and would report directly to the chancellor of the university. While the Board of Directors was empowered to deal directly with the Advisory Budget Commission and the State Budget Office, budgets and other financial documents, in practice, were transmitted through the campus administration and the University of North Carolina System General Administration.
The directors (formerly administrators) of the hospital and their tenures are listed below:
| 1950-1962 | Robert Randall Cadmus |
| 1962-1966 | Eugene Benson Crawford |
| 1966-1969 | William Lentz Ivey |
| 1969-1972 | Harold P. Coston, Acting |
| 1972-1975 | John Martyn Danielson |
| 1975-1979 | Dennis Robert Barry |
| 1979-1980 | Robert F. Burgin, Acting |
| 1980- | Eric B. Munson |
Because of the close administrative relationship between North Carolina Memorial Hospital and the School of Medicine, much information on the development of the hospital (especially through the early 1970s) will be found in Series 4.

Files of Vice Provost for Health Affairs H. Garland Hershey, chiefly 1996-1997, and of Associate Provost Edward F. (Ned) Brooks, 1997-2001. A few files include earlier and/or later materials. In 1997, Provost Richard Richardson eliminated the position of Vice Provost for Health Affairs, which had been left vacant when Garland Hershey returned to his former post at the School of Dentistry. Most duties of the vice provost were subsequently assumed by Associate Provost Brooks. After Hershey's departure, Division of Health Affairs deans and directors began reporting to Brooks on day-to-day functions; on broader issues, they reported directly to the Provost.
