Scope and Contents

Both Series 2 Explorations and Perspectives and Series 3 Courses files contain material pertaining to course content and instructors, and may include syllabi, reading lists, course descriptions, and student's application forms to take the course. Annual reports are available from 1970 through 1996.
Content Warning This finding aid contains language that may be offensive or outdated. Because such language is in titles or direct transcription of published materials, it has not been changed. Keeping this language intact provides the most accurate depiction of the creators’ intent, and can potentially tell us important things about bigotry and bias on the part of the creators, or in a particular historical context. It can also preserve terms formerly applied by a group to self-identify that have since fallen out of common usage. For more information on DCA's content warning policy please visit our website.
