In 1950, the state socialist government of Hungary decided that the education of Roman Catholic, Reformed and Lutheran pastors could no longer be provided within the framework of the state universities, so the Evangelical-Lutheran Faculty of Theology in Sopron had to be separated from the University of Pécs within a few months and a (nominally) church-funded pastoral education institution, the Evangelical-Lutheran Theological Academy, had to be organised. An important part of this process was the selection of the academic staff members, which I would like to present in the memoirs of Dean Károly Karner. This source, on the one hand, provides a good summary of the events that took place in the autumn of 1950, and on the other hand, it was intended to underpin the legality of the dismissal of Professor Lajos Jánossy, and thus, although the document is undated, it can be placed in the context of a church rehabilitation process of Jánossy that took place in 1956/1957.
