Abstract
The University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Public Health (GSPH) was founded in 1948 as the first school of public health in Pennsylvania. It was originally led by its first dean, Thomas Parran, one of the founders of the World Health Organization and former Surgeon General of the United States. The school has contributed important research to various aspects of public health including occupational health and industrial hygiene; genetic counseling; breast-conserving surgery; and early and enduring research into HIV and AIDS. This archival collection documents the school's history through various records it either created or collected, spanning from its formation into the 21st century. These concern such things as its establishment and grant funding by the A.W. Mellon Educational and Charitable Trust; the development of curricula and programs; research projects; committee meetings; the organization of schoolwide seminars; faculty hiring; and accreditation. There are also photographs, audio recordings, and videos that depict GSPH faculty, students, ceremonies, lectures, and news appearances.

History
The University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Public Health (GSPH) was founded in 1948 as the first school of public health in Pennsylvania and the tenth to be accredited in the United States. The creation of GSPH was set in motion in 1946 when the A.W. Mellon Educational and Charitable Trust asked six prominent citizens to assess Pittsburgh's most urgent needs. Each participant recognized the health problems in the city stemming from such things as industrial pollution and occupational hazards, and so the Trust formed a commission in 1948 which recommended the creation of a school of public health. The commission sought input from Lowell J. Reed, at that time Vice President of Johns Hopkins, and Ernest L. Stebbins, Dean of the School of Public Health at Johns Hopkins, who wrote a plan for a school of public health that would most benefit the Pittsburgh area, known as the "Reed Report." As a result of their proposals, the Trust provided a $13.6 million endowment to establish the University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Public Health in 1948 which roughly followed the Reed Report's suggestions for its structure and focus. Thomas Parran, one of the founders of the World Health Organization and Surgeon General of the United States (1936-1948), was hired as the first dean of the school in 1948. Parran would go on to have a strong impact on the school, helping to hire several prominent individuals in the field. The first classes started in the fall of 1950. The school initially rented surplus space in the Municipal Hospital for Contagious Diseases (now Salk Hall). The Pitt Public Health Building (formerly called Parran Hall) was completed in 1957 and the school still operates there today. Upon the opening of the Public Health Building, the A.W. Mellon Educational and Charitable Trust had spent a total of $16,207,428 in support of the school.
An early focus, inspired by the heavily industrial economy of Allegheny County, was occupational health and industrial hygiene, with the school's research contributing to the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970. The school has seen a wide variety of other important developments contributing to national and global public health. In 1971, J. Howard Turner established the Genetic Counseling Program, one of the oldest such programs in the U.S. Carol K. Redmond, in the Biostatistics department, collaborated with the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project and had major findings on breast-conserving surgery. The Department of Infectious Diseases and Microbiology is known for its early research into HIV and AIDS; in 1983 the university was awarded one of the National Institutes of Health's first major AIDS research contracts, leading to the Pitt Men's Study and the wider Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study of which it was a part.
Parran was dean of the school for its first ten years, retiring in 1958. James Crabtree, who had been deputy surgeon general under Parran, would succeed him as the school's dean in 1958. Later deans were Antonio Ciocco (1966-68; acting), John C. Cutler (1968-69; acting), Herschel E. Griffin (1969-80), M. Allen Pond (1980-81; acting), Raymond Seltser (1981-87), Edgar N. Duncan (1987; acting), Thomas P. Detre (1987-90; interim), Donald R. Mattison (1990-98), Herbert S. Rosenkrantz (1998-2001; interim), Bernard D. Goldstein (2001-05), Roberta B. Ness (2006; interim), Donald S. Burke (2006-2019), A. Everette James (2019-2020; Interim), and Maureen Lichtveld (2021-present).
The school originally had four departments: Department of Public Health Practice, chaired by James A. Crabtree; Department of Biostatistics, chaired by Antonio Ciocco; Department of Occupational Health, chaired by Adolph G. Kammer; and the Department of Epidemiology and Microbiology, chaired by William McDowell Hammon. The next academic year the Department of Biochemistry and Nutrition, chaired by Robert E. Olson, was organized, and it began teaching classes in the 1953-1954 academic year. The Department of Biochemistry and Nutrition would leave GSPH in 1969, becoming part of the School of Arts and Sciences. In 1965 a Population Unit was created, directed by Samuel M. Wishik; it was later renamed to the Population Division, and was dissolved in 1975. In 1968 a Radiation Health Division was formed, and in 1970 this became the Department of Radiation Health, headed by Niel Wald. In 1975 the Department of Epidemiology and Microbiology was divided into the Department of Epidemiology, chaired by Lewis H. Kuller, and the Department of Microbiology, chaired by Monto Ho, later renamed to the Department of Infectious Diseases and Microbiology. Also in 1975 the Department of Public Health Practice was renamed the Department of Health Services Administration, chaired by Gordon K. MacLeod. In 1977 the Department of Occupational Health was renamed the Department of Industrial Environmental Health Services, chaired by Yves C.E. Alarie, later renamed to the Department of Environmental and Occupational Health. In 1989 a Department of Human Genetics was created, chaired by John J. Mulvihill, deriving from an earlier human genetics program. In 2002 the Department of Health Services Administration was split into the Department of Behavioral and Community Health Sciences, chaired by Robert Goodman, and the Department of Health Policy and Management, chaired by Judith R. Lave.
In 2022, the school launched an undergraduate program and was renamed to the School of Public Health.
Scope and Contents
These records were created or collected by the University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Public Health. Records date from across the school's history, from its formation into the 21st century; however, the earlier decades of its existence, especially the 1950s, are better documented here. Records derive from the dean, departments, and individual faculty, as well as material from outside the school. This includes correspondence, progress reports, strategic plans, meeting minutes, publications, and news articles. Records document various aspects of the school, including its establishment and grant funding by the A.W. Mellon Educational and Charitable Trust; the development of curricula and programs; research projects; committee meetings; the organization of schoolwide seminars; faculty hiring; and accreditation. Alongside paper material, there are photographs as well as audio and video recordings, in analogue and digital formats. There are no records from after the school was renamed in 2022 included here; any archival records deriving from after that date will be included in a separate collection.

Scope and Contents
This series consists of correspondence related to specific organizations, research subjects, faculty, and important events. Much of the correspondence is with the dean of the school and includes discussions on public health legislation, meeting arrangements, school budgeting, organizing research projects, and the development of school programs and departments. In addition to correspondence, many files contain attachments such as meeting minutes, memoranda, reports, draft manuscripts of studies, and conference proceedings.

Scope and Contents
This subseries includes records relating to organizations, projects, and events, both internal and external to GSPH.

Conditions Governing Access
Access to Box 10, Folder 51 requires a signed Confidentiality Agreement due to the presence of sensitive information and the material in this folder cannot be photographed.
This subseries includes records pertaining to individuals, mostly GSPH faculty. Files associated with an individual do not necessarily contain information solely about them; rather they may have belonged to or been organized by them or their office. Included are files relating to such faculty as Antonio Ciocco, James Crabtree, Adolph Kammer, Hershel Griffin, and Lewis Kuller.
This series documents early public health seminars, beginning with the school's first academic year in 1950-1951 and ending in the academic year of 1962-1963. For most academic years, there are files for each guest speaker. These files can contain transcriptions of their talk, correspondence between the guest speaker and the dean (Parran or Crabtree), reprints of the speakers' or others' work on the relevant topic, and financial information relating to the event. Correspondence from the dean documents the invitation to the speaker, negotiations on their schedule, and the presentation topic. The first academic year contains transcriptions of each seminar's talk, but they become less frequent in later years (as noted in the subseries for each academic year).
This series is split into subseries for each academic year (Subseries 2. to 11.), excepting the final three years from 1960-1963 that only have one file of correspondence per year and so are grouped together in Subseries 12. There is also an initial subseries of background material and planning files extending across multiple academic years.
Scope and Contents
This subseries includes correspondence, memoranda, reports, and meeting minutes, all related to the formation and development of the public health seminars.
