Scope and Contents

The additional materials in this series from the Goheen family mostly document Robert Goheen's activities after his tenure as president of Princeton University. The series is mostly composed of what Goheen identified as both his personal and general correspondence, as well as correspondence and other records pertaining to Goheen's leadership positions in various organizations. Some of the notable organizations include the American University of Beirut, Council on Foundations, and National Humanities Center.

To a lesser extent, this series includes typescripts of some of Goheen's speeches and scholarly papers, mainly related to Princeton anniversaries and memorials or to the topics of international affairs education, India, or nuclear proliferation. Goheen's subject files are also included, which pertain to eulogies for various individuals or to Princeton and academia more broadly. Photographs of Goheen in this series mostly postdate his Princeton presidency or were taken during his tenure, though there are a few photographs that predate his term.
