Harvey Baty and Emma Lou Baty Interview, July 1991
Harvey Baty and Emma Lou Baty describe attending the University of Montana (UM) during the late 1920s and early 1930s. Harvey Baty discusses becoming the Director of the School of Religion in 1938 and how he worked to establish innovative courses on world religions. The Batys talk at length about UM student organizations including the Bear Paws, the International Club, and the Synadelphic House—a girls co-op house. They recall their interest in international activities which prompted them to accept employment at the University of Beirut. The Batys describe returning to Montana State University-Bozeman to establish a United Nations exchange program to train Latin Americans in community development. They conclude by comparing college students of their generation with college students in the 1990s.https://scholarworks.umt.edu/umcentennial_interviews/1001/thumbnail.jp

George Harvey
George Harvey worked as a handyman; his wife, Emma, was the daughter of Eliza Campbell Wilburn (slave name Wilbourne), the first African American to serve as a cook when she worked for Chancellor George Frederick Holmes at the inception of the University. Emma became the Chancellor\u27s cook after her mother\u27s death. George and Emma worked for four Chancellors from 1892 to 1932: Fulton 1892; Kincannon 1907-1914; Powers 1914-1924; Hume 1924-1930; and Powers again from 1930-1932. They lived in the Chancellor’s home which was located in Barnard Observatory on campus. Later they moved into a two room house erected for them on the premises. George and Emma Harvey passed away in the 1930’s and were commemorated by the University for their long service. The Harvey family, for two more generations, continued to work for the University in the bookstore, dormitories, fraternity houses, sorority houses and mail service totaling more than 14 decades. Emma and George’s two sons, Ulysses and Bishop, worked in the bookstore, post office, and dormitories.
