New York State Modern Political Archive

Elected officials, interest groups, and activists from New York State.
The New York State Modern Political Archive (NYSMPA) was established in 1982 to document the work of individuals and private interest groups concerned with New York State public policy issues in the 20th century. Originally named the Archives of Public Affairs and Policy, the NYSMPA collects, preserves, and facilitates access to primary sources pertaining to New York State public affairs and policy, and now includes the personal papers of members of the gubernatorial administrations of Nelson A. Rockefeller; papers of former New York Congressional members and elected officials who served in New York State Legislature; and the official records and papers of numerous private groups, professional associations, individuals, public-sector labor unions, community groups, and other organizations concerned with Empire State public-policy issues.

Annual Assemblies, 1965-1968

This sub-series is comprised of bound copies of the proceedings of annual faculty assemblies. With the first meeting in 1965, these assemblies were built around such themes as "The Role of the Faculty in State University" and "The University Student in a Changing Environment". Assemblies addressed such issues as the expansion of the State University, teaching-learning process, and educational television. In response to the demands of a turbulent decade, the role of disadvantaged students and the question of who shall be taught was the focus of discussion; other topics included allocation of resources, faculty research and community service.
