Amaç: Bu makale Robert Koleji Yüksek Okulu’nun bir yükseköğretim merkezi olarak son yıllarını ve Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı’na devredilmesi sürecini inceler
Yöntem: Çalışma Robert Kolej arşivleri ve biyografik anlatıları dayalı olarak Robert Kolej’in Boğaziçi Üniversitesine dönüşümündeki farklı dinamiklere odaklanır.
Bulgular: Robert Koleji’nin “Türkleşmesinin” Amerikan Mütevelli Heyeti’nin ısrarlı teklifleri ve Türkiye’deki siyasi kültürel koşulların değişimi ile birlikte ortak bir karara varılarak gerçekleştiği anlaşılmaktadır. Boğaziçi Üniversitesi’nin yeni bir yükseköğretim kurumu olarak ortaya çıkışı 1960’lı yılların sertleşen ideolojik söylemi, okul yönetiminin değişen tercihleri ve son olarak Soğuk Savaş konjonktürünün getirdiği öncelikler ile birlikte mümkün hale gelmiştir.
Özgünlük: Çalışma incelediği arşiv kaynakları itibari ile özgün bir anlatı sunar. Robert Koleji arşivlerinde yer alan detaylar okulun Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı’na devrine dair yeni bilgiler sunar. Bu bilgiler biyografik anlatılar ile birlikte sunulmuştur

Purpose: This article examines the final years of Robert College’s “Yüksek Okul” and its transfer to the Ministry of Education.
Method: Relying on the Robert College archives and biographical accounts it focuses on the differing dynamics of the Robert College’s transformation to Bogazici University.
Findings: It can be said that the “Turkification” of Robert College was a product of a consensus among the American Board of Trustees and the Turkish bureaucrats and politicians. Ideological polarization of the 1960s, changing choices of administration, and Cold War conjuncture made the emergence of Bogazici University possible.
Originality: Based on archival findings the study offers a novel account of the College’s transfer to the Ministry of Education. These findings are presented along with biographical sources
