Congratulations to Brady Cox who completed <\/span>a MA in church history from ACU on May 11. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/i>Brady worked in <\/span>Special Collections<\/span><\/a> since January 2016 and recently published an article in the February issue of the <\/span>Southwestern Archivist<\/span><\/a> announcing that the William Douglass & Charline F. Gunselman Papers, are organized and complete. \u00a0The announcement can be seen <\/span>here<\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n

The collection represents the experiences of the Gunselman family who were missionaries living in Manila, Philippines (1964-1972), and include correspondence with American churches and financial supporters, Filipino church leaders, and other missionaries in the Philippines and Southeast Asia (1962-1972). The unique collection provides meeting minutes, financial information, student records, surveys, research, fundraising efforts, edited drafts of materials for Gunselman\u2019s Ed.D. dissertation, and evidence that Church of Christ missionaries used schools to train ministers. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBrady\u2019s work in the Gunselman papers is the result of the wonderful confluence of his academic work and our department\u2019s need,\u201d said Mac Ice, Director Special Collections. \u201cBrady brought the understanding he gained from work toward his thesis to bear on the processing, arrangement, and description of the papers. \u00a0In turn, the processing work in the Gunselman papers fed into his thesis. The outcome is that we now have the papers fully and properly processed, Brady has a complete thesis, and along the way he gained first-hand experience in archival processing that will serve him well as he begins the library science program at UT Austin this fall.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
