In 1897, Baird was appointed president of the Pyengyang Academy and Union Christian College (also known as Sungsil Haktang and later Sungsil Taehak), a position that he held until his death in 1931. The William M. Baird Papers, 1885-1951 (bulk 1885-1931), consist of Baird's diaries, correspondence, reports, photographs, clippings and miscellaneous items. View the collection guide to learn more.
