Correspondence, memoranda, flyers, notices, and other public statements created by
alumni and parental organizations are contained in this series. The former include
alumni associations and alumni groups organized on the basis of identity and
issues. The materials contained within the files for these organizations reflect
alumni views on the student unrest at Columbia, the University’s response, and its
potential restructuring. Letters from individual alumni to the associations, the
report by Alumni Federation President Laurence E. Walsh, and public statements and
publications by alumni groups are particularly useful sources. Alumni groups also
addressed high profile topics, including the Vietnam War. Documentation produced
by parental groups relates to the 1968 student upheaval at Columbia and its
consequences, and, to a much lesser extent, anti-war activism. Materials found in Box 73
