The “Gottheil Medal” will be presented for the year 1932 on May 13th, by the Zeta Beta Tau Fraternity, the largest and oldest National Jewish College Fraternity, to the American who had done the most for Jewry and Judaism.

The “Gottheil Medal” was established in 1925 by Zeta Beta Tau, in honor of Professor Richard J. H. Gottheil of Columbia University, an outstanding leader in Jewish, American and international culture. For many years he was National President of Zeta Beta Tau.

Governor Herbert H. Lehman received the 1930 award, and Felix M. Warburg received the honor for 1929. No award was made for 1931.
