UC San Diego. Earl Warren College Office of the Dean Records, 1969-1988 (RSS 1141)

Extent: 4.4 Linear feet (11 archives boxes)

The records of the Earl Warren College, Dean's Office, formerly the Fourth College, contain subject files, photographs of staff and events, and publications (1974-1996). The material documents the formation of the college's foundation curriculum plan, activities, and organization from 1969-1986.

Opened in 1974 and designated as Fourth College, Earl Warren College was named, after the three term California Governor and former Chief Justice of the United States Earl Warren, in October of 1993. "Warren College is committed to helping its students gain the intellectual, social, and decision-making skills necessary to assume responsible global citizenship." The first dean of Warren College was Gary Frost (1974-1978).

Originally, the Dean's Office was jointly appointed between Academic Affairs and Student Affairs. Currently, the college is divided into two separate offices with academic and student affairs; the academic advising programs are under the academic affairs wing, while the Office of Student Affairs is responsible for student programming, as well as the residence life program.

The Dean's Office primary role is to provide students with a broad range of opportunities for development, establish an identity to the greater college community, and help facilitate communication between the University administration, faculty, and the student. Warren College specifically focuses on experimental education and individual growth and change.
