Scope and content:

This series documents the entire history of the Environmental Forum at the University at Albany, SUNY from 1969-1977. The Environmental Forum was a course in the Environmental Studies Program at the University at Albany. The purpose of the course was for students to examine the problems created by an overcrowded society in relation to the environment and man. The inter-disciplinary approach the Forum took allowed anyone to take the class, no matter their academic background. The design of the course sent students out into the community to do hands-on projects. Course handouts, in-class assignments, evaluations, and other material comprise the bulk of this series.

Some of the information in this series is restricted. The restricted folders are labeled "personal student information" and contain confidential information, such as social security numbers.
