Following the end of World War II, he served as an advisor to the U.S. Army and the United Nations in Germany, Austria, Japan, and Korea, guiding the establishment of democracy in those countries, and he was for many years chair of the International League for the Rights of Man. He spoke and wrote widely, most often on issues of civil liberties and human rights, and also taught periodically throughout his life.

Series 7: Curricular Revision, 1947-1990

The Curricular Revision series contains correspondence, memoranda, clippings, proposals, statistical reports, press releases, and printed materials that follow curriculum changes at Princeton and decisions made regarding national trends in curricula. The series documents deliberations over the breadth and depth of liberal education; ways of bringing Princeton's curriculum in line with other Ivy League schools; debate over comprehensive, in particular senior, examinations; the teaching of science to non-science majors; and undergraduate enrollment in graduate courses. Significant portions of this series pertain to course quotas, language requirements, and pass/fail options.
