SOME ONLINE CONTENT
The Communications Office's subject files series contains press releases, University publicity and outside press coverage, and, in some cases, departmental correspondence. Subjects include regular University business as well as special events, University policies, individual departments, faculty members, student activities and life, and dealings with alumni and donors. The main body of files is from the mid 1950s through the 1970s. This period covers important developments within the University, including major issues such as student protest movements, the introduction of co-education (1969), and social issues such as affirmative action, the treatment of minorities, and equal access. Discussion of University policies can be found under specific subject headings, as well as in the files on the Trustees and specific committees (Commission on the Future of the College, Plan of Study Committee, Kelley Committee, Committee of Fifty, Council of the Princeton University Community).
