Wolpe, Gerald Isaac, 1927-. Oral history interview with Gerald Isaac Wolpe, 1999.

Title: Oral history interview with Gerald Isaac Wolpe, 1999.

Wolpe begins with a description of the extended Wolpe family and its origins. His father Benjamin was born in the United States, c. 1894, and met Sarah Fine, originally from Poland, in the Boston area, where they were married. His father performed in vaudeville but died when Wolpe was 11, creating a sense of loss that permeated Wolpe's life. At 16, he left home to begin his studies, first studying history and then preparing for the rabbinate. After marrying Elaine Ring, and serving as a Marine at Camp Lejeune, NC, Wolpe came to Charleston in 1955 and for three years was rabbi of Emanu-El, a conservative congregation. Wolpe recalls the stresses of integration and segregation in South Carolina, discusses the congregation and the history of its founding, and gives tributes to its members and to Judge Julius Waites Waring, whom he met once. Wolpe also tells of being strongly influenced by religious leader Mordecai Kaplan, discusses his informal role as a visiting rabbi in small towns in South Carolina, and recounts a story of Mendel Rivers being named for Mendel Dumas of Bonneau, SC.

Guide to the Daily Worker and Daily World Photographs Collection, 1920-2001

Title: Guide to the Daily Worker and Daily World Photographs Collection, 1920-2001

The official organ of the Communist Party, USA, the Daily Worker's editorial positions reflected the policies of the Communist Party. At the same time the paper also attempted to speak to the broad left-wing community in the United States that included labor, civil rights, and peace activists, with stories covering a wide range of events, organizations and individuals in the United States and around the world. As a daily newspaper, it covered the major stories of the twentieth century. However, the paper always placed an emphasis on radical social movements, social and economic conditions particularly in working class and minority communities, poverty, labor struggles, racial discrimination, right wing extremism with an emphasis on fascist and Nazi movements, and of course the Soviet Union and the world-wide Communist movement. The paper has had a succession of names and has been published in varying frequences between daily to weekly over the course of its existence. In 2010 it ceased print publication and became an electronic, online-only, weekly publication titled the People's World. The bulk of the collection consists of printed photographic images produced through a variety of processes, collected by the photography editors of the Daily Worker and its successor newspapers as a means of maintaining an organized collection of images for use in publication. Images of many important people, groups and events associated with the CPUSA and the American Left are present in the collection, as well as images of a wide variety of people, subjects and events not explicitly linked with the CPUSA or Left politics.

Title: Robert C. Edwards presidential records. Correspondence. 1960-1979, 1971-1975.

The series may be divided into the following general categories: instructional programs and facilities development, relations with the state of South Carolina, and student affairs. Efforts to improve the quality of programs and instruction at Clemson may be found throughout the series in records from consultants and organizations such as Cresap, McCormick, and Paget; the South Carolina Commission on Higher Education; the National Association of State Universities and Land Grant Colleges; the Southeastern Library Network; and the Southern Regional Education Board. Files documenting improvements to the facilties include those on the Stadium, Lee Hall, and the Clemson House. Other buildings constructed were the Fike Recreation Center, Jervey Athletic Center, Rhodes Hall, and the Forest and Recreation Resources building. A number of files concern topics related to the State of South Carolina: the Atlantic Coastal Plains Regional Commission, the South Carolina Forestry Commission, and the Water Resources Research Institute. A small number of files document affairs of concern to students: student government, fraternities and sororities, censorship of publications, and campus unrest in 1971. Also are letters on various topics from students. The files of the Atlantic Coast Conference and the National Collegiate Athletic Association contain minutes, reports, bulletins, and rankings of schools in the conference. Much of the correspondence documents the decision of the University of South Carolina to leave the ACC and Clemson's decision to remain a member. Also included are files on financial aid awards and the method of awarding them, recruiting violations, and problems encountered in complying with civil rights legislation.
