The tape recording is a lecture on Symboling given by Lehmer, circa 1970. 
Although it is uncertain, the lecture was probably taped at Dana College. Lehmer discusses Leslie A. White's concept of "symbolate" and reads a lengthy excerpt from Arthur C. Clarke's "2001" and discusses it as a basic concept of symboling. An excerpt from the song, "I Should Have Known Better" by the Beatles appears at the beginning of side two, before continuing the lecture. It apparently has no bearing on the lecture.

The remainder of the teaching material was used for Lehmer's Visting Professorship at the University of Minnesota in 1969. Correspondence with Elden Johnson preceding the appointment is also included.
