This series consists of materials related to Gaffney's studies as an undergraduate at Rutgers University (1961-1965) and as a graduate student and PhD candidate at Columbia University (1965-1969) as well as his work as a teacher at both institutions.
Student materials include class notes, notebooks, essays, exam booklets, and graded exams.
