Records, 1971-1977, 1972-1976 (bulk).

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/478369524

The collection consists of records of academic and administrative offices of the Labor College and of the United University Professions Inc. and divides into two major subject areas: 1) personnel policy and 2) union activity over the firing practices of 1975. Materials include college hand books and by-laws, documents of the PERB case, and a file on student support of academic freedom for fired faculty. Minutes, memoranda, and reports generated by Empire State College are not complete, but the documentation of Labor College's history and its implementation of alternative learning modes as well as the faculty's struggle for adequate working conditions and academic freedom provide the researcher of labor education in New York City with important material.
