This series contains the correspondence of the SASU officers with SUNY administrators, state legislators, member schools, state and national student organizations, and student services providers. The correspondence with both state legislators and the SUNY administrators illustrates the growing respect given to SASU, as this student organization increased not only its size, but also, perhaps more important, its political sophistication. The correspondence with schools in the SUNY system documents SASU's struggle to gain the support of campuses throughout the state, the strategies used by SASU to publicize both its mission and its activities, and the continual budgetary constraints of both SASU and the member schools' student governments.
