Sub-Series II: Speaking Engagements, 1954 - 1974
Sub-Series
Scope and Contents
From the Collection:
The bulk of this collection consists of Wise's correspondence from the 1950s to the 1990s. It also contains a few added biographical items, reprints, research on the Magee Professorship, newspaper clippings, photographs, diplomas, and certificates.
The collection is organized chronologically within individual series. Items have largely been kept in their original order with the folder titles Wise assigned. Date ranges for foldered material has been added. Since the collection follows Wise's organization, many of the series contain items that could be added to other series. For example, within the correspondence files there are items that can be classified as addresses, events and ephemera, photographs, newspaper clippings, manuscripts, and notes. However, since they are within folders that contain primarily correspondence and represent Wise's original order, their placement has been maintained.
This collection also contains three folders of restricted material.
