Collection materials are in English
The Chicano Studies Program originated during the spring of 1970, when students and
faculty of WSU noticed a lack of curriculum geared toward Chicano/a students.
According to a detailed history of the program prepared by Chicano/a faculty and
staff in 1997, six courses were developed to create the core of the Chicano Studies
Program. The program was eventually enveloped into the Comparative Ethnic Studies
program.
This collection mostly contains administrative files related to the development of
the Chicano Studies Program at WSU from 1968-1975. Items include meeting notes,
financial reports, educational pamphlets and lesson plans, correspondence, and
memorandum. Ither items include notes on the Affirmative Action Council, information
related to national farmworkers strikes, and various newspaper clippings related to
the Chicano Studies Program.
This is an unprocessed collection. Any arrangement reflects either a pre-existing
order from the records' creators or previous custodians, or preliminary sorting
performed by staff.
All boxes filed by subject matter. Boxes contain a collection of proposals,
administrative files, lesson plans, memorandum, and correspondence.
This collection is open and available for research use.
Copyright restrictions apply.
