Hide Profile

The Students for Democratic Society (SDS) was a grassroots, loosely organized student group founded in 1960 at Ann Arbor, Michigan. It adopted the Port Huron Statement advocating non-violent social action to change the political system and address social ills. Records of the Penn State chapter of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) begin in 1966. The group was less active from 1970 to 1972 as the Vietnam War was ending and after a brief revival in 1973, faded out of existence.
