Series 1 contains records which are confidential and restricted. See the restrictions note at the end of this finding aid.
Note to Archivist: The records in Series 1 were donated by Dr. Larry Kantner in the summer of 2021. Kantner had painstakingly prepared his papers, organizing them into categories in large binders. Care has been taken to retain as much as possible of this organization while placing the material into standard archival folders and boxes. In some instances, however, rearrangement along chronological lines was preferred over the original order.
The box lists for this Series are available online. They can be accessed by following this link.
