The University Christian Foundation existed from 1906 to 1980 at the Washington Square Center of New York University, its purpose being to develop, extend, and express the Protestant Christian ethos among college students. The organization was originally founded by the YMCA as a students' club for men and was called in succession Christian Association, University Christian Association, and University Christian Foundation. The University Christian Foundation suspended operations in 1977 in response to shrinking funds and diminished student activity.
The University Christian Foundation records consist of constitutions, bylaws, correspondence, minutes, reports, surveys, proposals, calendars, treasurers' reports, memoranda, ephemera and manuscripts. This series provides a relatively complete account of activities of the UCF which addressed increasingly secular or unorthodox concerns, including the antiwar movement and draft counselling, environmental abuse, race relations, birth control and the womens' movement.
Subseries I demonstrates faculty support for and participation in the University Christian Foundation and Subseries II shows the relationship between the Christian Association, subsequently the UCF, and New York City churches.
