American Association for Jewish Education, 1967-1975

1972- , 1967-1974/1975. Includes publications, minutes, form letters, newsletters, budgets, reports, agenda and some routine Association and personal correspondence. Correspondence with Doctor Charles Berlin, Executive Secretary of the Association for Jewish Studies. Correspondence with Robert H. Arnow, President of the American Association for Jewish Education. Konvitz responds to the draft of the agreement between the American Association for Jewish Education and the Department of Education and Culture. Doctor Konvitz suggests that the phraseology of the agreement should be more neutral and avoid such statements as "the morality of Israel in Arab relations;" "the right of Israel to the land." Also, Konvitz does not believe that it is the purpose of the American Association for Jewish Education to contribute to bringing youth and adults to "live in Israel," (November 12, 1971). Konvitz accepts Arnow's invitation to serve as a member of the National Commission to guide and advise the American Association for Jewish Education in the development of policy, program and curriculum materials for Jewish studies in public high schools and colleges (November 1972 [?] and June 1970)
