Shattuck lantern slides collection Shattuck, Charles Houston, 1867-1931 PG 105 4 linear feet 1904-1910 Glass lantern slides used by C. H. Shattuck of the Department of Forestry at the University of Idaho as illustrations in forestry and geology lectures. English .

Collection is open for research.

Charles Houston Shattuck was born in Vandalia, Missouri. Little is known about his chilhood, but in 1894 and 1898 he earned his B.S. and M.S. degrees from Campbell College. He taught at the college from 1895 to 1903, and additionally held the role of Vice President from 1897 to 1903.

Shattuck was hired by the University of Idaho in 1909 to start the school's first forestry program. The Department of Forestry was first housed in the College of Agriculture, then quickly moved to the College of Letters and Science when Shattuck was appointed Dean there. In 1910, with the assistance of C. L. Price (the first person hired to oversee campus plantings) he began planting a 14-acre weedy slope with hundreds of introduced trees and shrubs. The Arboretum Hill at U of I was the first university arboretum in the West.

In 1914 Shattuck was made Dean of the College of Letters and Sciences. Shattuck left the U of I in 1917 due to differences in administration but stayed active in forestry. After his death, the arboretum at U of I was renamed the Charles Houston Shattuck Arboretum in 1933.

Some of the images in these slides appear in a report from C. H. Shattuck, University of Idaho, Dept. of Forestry to Major F. A. Fenn, Supervisor, Clearwater National Forest (Day-NW SD428.C55S5) and in an article by C. H. Shattuck in the UI Agricultural Experiment Station Bulletin no. 91, Dec. 1916 (Idaho S 53 E416).

The slides were donated to the University of Idaho Library by the Latah County Historical Society in November 2009. Another set of lantern slides were donated in 2022 to the library's Special Collections and Archives from the Latah County Historical Society.

Most of the lantern slide images are available to view online in the C. H. Shattuck Lantern Slides, 1904-1910 digital collection.
