Abstract
Before becoming president of Indiana
University, Herman B Wells served as an assistant cashier at the National Bank of
Lebanon before going on to work for the Indiana Bankers Association, the Indiana
Commission for Financial Institutions, and the Indiana Department of Financial
Institutions. He was named dean of the Indiana University School of Business
administration in 1935 by IU President William Lowe Bryan. In 1937 he was named
acting president of the university and president the following year, a position he
held until 1962. Upon his retirement, IU created the position of University
Chancellor, which Dr. Wells held until his death in 2000. This collection consists
of Wells’ personal papers and includes papers pertaining to his family and personal
finances, his activities in the banking profession, his work in Germany for the
United States government after World War II, and to his research and teaching and
professional activities as a member of the faculty of Indiana University.

arranged alphabetically by organization.
Awards, the fourth series, spans the period from 1922 to 1999, and consists of records documenting the
various awards Wells received before, during, and after his tenure as president of
Indiana University. The series is subdivided into two subseries: plaques and
oversized items, and certificates or other paper records related to awards. The
first box of plaques is a normal record center box, but the rest of the plaques and
oversized items are stored in flat boxes. The letter-sized certificates and other
paper records are stored in a records center box at the end of the series. Wells
received a variety of different awards including: Honorary Citizenship to New
Orleans, honorary membership into several fraternal organizations, and distinguished

from various universities and colleges, including Butler University, University of
Louisville, Earlham College, and Indiana State College (now Indiana State
University), as well as several awards from different departments or organizations
at Indiana University, such as the School of Business. This series is arranged
alphabetically within each box, but awards from the same organization may not all be

The fifth series, Biographical records and personal documents, spans the period from
1934 to 2000, and includes
biographical statements or articles about Wells and various other personal documents
such as his driver’s license, passport, and will. Several versions and drafts of

Wells’ staff and the administration of the University, detailing procedures in case
of emergency involving Wells’ health. This series is arranged alphabetically.
Education and schoolwork, spanning the period from 1906 to 1927, is the sixth series in this collection.
This series consists of records related to Wells’ education from the time he was a
schoolboy in the early 20th century to his days in college at Indiana University.

Country Banks"

students in the Ethics Department. Also included in the series are Wells’ diplomas
from high school to graduate school, which are stored separately in the Archives’
oversized collection. Please ask Archives staff for more details. This series is
arranged alphabetically.
The seventh series, Financial matters, spans the period from 1906 to 2001, and is further sub-divided into five
sub-series: General, Bills and receipts, Contributions and gifts, Insurance, and
Investments. The General subseries consists mostly of personal financial records and
bank statements, as well as several files related to income taxes and tax returns.
Bills and receipts were created primarily during Wells’ later years and include

and furniture. The final two subseries include records related to Wells’ investments
in life and health insurance, and in various stock ventures. This series is arranged

Wells’ art, antique collections, farm real estate, and the different houses he owned
and lived in throughout Bloomington and the surrounding area, including the Woodburn
House, Wells House on Tenth Street, at the Meadowood retirement community, and for a
house on Second Street. Several architectural records for these homes were pulled

more details. Inventories of his possessions, compiled at different times usually
for legal purposes, are included in the series. There are also records related to
houseboys, housekeepers and cooks who lived with and assisted Wells. This series is

Banking, the tenth series, spans the period from 1928-1962, and is further divided into four subseries:

banking activities, includes records relating to various other banking organizations
and conferences, including American Bankers Association, Federal Reserve System, and
a conference in Washington on Bank Statement Standardization. This subseries is

1893 to 1986 and includes
several examples of writings and speeches by Wells. The series is divided into three
subseries:

Articles and other publications, and Speeches.
Being
Lucky
makes up the vast majority of this series, and it consists of
notes, research materials, drafts, transcripts, audio tapes, correspondence, and
other materials related to preparation of
Being Lucky:
Reminiscences and Reflections by Herman B Wells,

the 1970s, and published by the IU
Press in 1980. The subseries also includes material
created by the Chancellor's administrative assistant Dorothy Collins and researchers
John L. Haste and David Warriner. This subseries is arranged into the following
categories: 1) Planning; 2) Notes and drafts by chapter; 3) Research materials; and
4) Audio tapes. Files for Chapter XVIII

were missing at the time of reprocessing. The articles and
other publications subseries consists primarily of writings by Wells on various
topics, particularly higher education. Articles of interest include
"Cooperation and Coordination of Federal Supervisory
Agencies,"
"How to Succeed as a University President without Really
Trying,"
and
"Higher Education Faces a Crucial
Decade,"
written in 1956. Also included is a

subseries is arranged alphabetically by title or subject. The speeches subseries
consists of notes, outlines, and drafts for speeches Wells gave from 1933 to 1984 during the years when he
was not serving as President of Indiana University (for Wells’ speeches as President
of IU, see Collection C137). Many of these speeches are related to the banking
industry. Also included are speeches on the State of the University while Wells
served as Interim President in 1968, the dedication of
the Elisabeth Ball room at the Lilly Library, and the eulogy given at the funeral of
former IU President William Lowe Bryan in 1955. This
subseries is arranged chronologically.
The twelfth series, German Assignment, consists of records created by Wells in late
1947 during his six-month leave of absence as
President of IU to serve as Director of the Education and Cultural Relations
Division of the Office of Military Government for Germany, U.S. (OMGUS). During this
time he also served as General Lucius D. Clay's cultural affairs advisor. The series
includes writings and reports, a diary, and subject files, but consists primarily of
correspondence with Indiana University, fellow OMGUS personnel, and individuals
seeking help immigrating or with locating displaced persons. The series is divided
into three subseries: Correspondence, Writings and reports, and Subject files.
Correspondence constitutes the largest subseries and spans the period from 1947 to 1950. It is arranged
alphabetically by surname. Significant correspondents include: William Lowe Bryan,
General Lucius D. Clay, Peter A. Fraenkel, J.A. Franklin, Alonzo G. Grace, Walter
Greenough, George B. McKibbin, Edward H. Litchfield, Secretary of War Robert P.
Patterson, Fenwick T. Reed, Catherine Royer, and Wells’ mother, Anna Bernice Wells.
The correspondence in this subseries was sometimes cross-referenced by President
Wells’ secretary, with references pointing the user to letters housed in subject
files or under another name as well as to letters in Wells’ Presidential records
(Collection C213). References that direct users to items housed outside the
collection are identified in the container list. The second subseries, writings and
reports, spans the years from 1947 to
1948 and is arranged chronologically, but many of the items are undated.
It includes a directive on constitutional reform in German institutions of higher
learning, a memorandum regarding the Cultural Affairs Program, a report on Wells’
trip to Washington, and Max Rheinstein’s report on the U.S. education mission to
Germany. Subject files span the years from 1947 to 1952 and are arranged alphabetically by folder title. Subjects
or types of material include: applications for employment, President Wells’ arrest
by Russian troops in East Berlin, newspaper clippings, Wells’ diary from his first
trip to Germany, German cultural exchanges and re-education, places to visit, and
requests to help persons enter the U.S.
The final series, audio visual materials, spans from the period from 1988 to 1998 and consists of a small
amount of VHS video tapes related to Herman B Wells. This collection of tapes came
from a larger collection found in Wells’ office in Owen Hall, but only the tapes
related directly to Wells were included in this series. Items of interest include a
tape of Dan Quayle in lieu of a transcript, the Ernst and Young Lifetime Achievement
Award ceremony, an interview on early Indiana banking with Blaine H. Wiseman, and an
oral history on the evolution of Woodburn House. This series is arranged
alphabetically.
