Scope and Contents

Correspondence with Professor Gotesky, Department of Philosophy, Northern Illinois University. In Konvitz's November 10, 1967 letter to Gotesky, Konvitz discusses reactions to the establishment of Cornell United Religious Work. In his own letter, Gotesky comments that he agrees with Konvitz that religious organizations should not be under hegemony of a university.

Gotesky recommends a plan for the dis-establishment of Cornell United Religious Work (October 28, 1969). Other very detailed correspondence from Gotesky on philosophical questions, particularly relating to Gotesky's attitudes and perceptions about world events, life, his work, himself, and Konvitz.
