These papers consist of a great quantity of Xeroxed, carbon, print, and near-print materials collected and preserved by Marston Schultz, a Berkeley student in 1964 and 1965. According to Mr. Schultz, everything in the collection was made available for the information of the public. Included are circulars and handouts, copies of correspondence, minutes, press releases, publications, reports, poems and songs, copies of University regulations, and other materials concerning Berkeley events from September, 1964 through July, 1965. Arrangement is by type of document and then chronological where items are dated.
Most of the categories are self-explanatory, and the free speech movement forms the subject matter common to all. The Correspondence includes letters between the administration and the faculty, students, regents, and the general public; between state officials and the Free Speech Movement and the general public; between faculty members and the Free Speech Movement; and others. The category “Reports, Statements, and Resolutions” includes not only these three kinds of documents but also other miscellaneous materials not included in other categories. The final category “University Policies and Regulations” contains documents stating the over-all University rules on student activities.
