There is the documentation of the Directing Committee of the Rabbinical Seminary from 1942-1943 that includes materials discussing the consequences of anti-Jewish legislation, especially the anti-Semitic Act VIII of 1942, which ended the official, state-endorsed status of the Rabbinical Seminary, documents concerning questions and cases of exemption from Hungarian anti-Semitic legislation and the peculiarly Hungarian institution of labor service. There are also miscellaneous documents of the Directing Committee of the Rabbinical Seminary from 1944. These include minutes of various meetings of the Directing Committee, financial documents, documents related to the graduation exams of April and May 1944 held at the high school that was operated by the Seminary, the correspondence of the Directing Committee and the Central Jewish Council regarding the salary, support, labor service and other issues of the professors of the Rabbinical Seminary, documents on the internment camp established in the building of the Seminary upon the Nazi German entry into Hungary in March 1944 as well as statistical data on the academic year 1944-45. There are also documents of the Seminary on the deported and returnees among its staff and student body. Last but not least, the collection contains minutes of meetings from 1945 on rebuilding the Seminary and restarting its educational program.
