Marsha Rosenthal Course Materials and Student Activism Materials is a collection documenting the experience of Marsha Rosenthal, Class of 1976, during her time as an undergraduate at Princeton. The collection reflects both her academic interests at the University as well as her organizational involvement. Spanning the years 1968-1982, the collection illustrates campus climate in the 1970's concerning many important issues such as women's rights, the Vietnam War, and race relations. Additionally, researchers interested in educational history will find Rosenthal's notebooks, and other related course materials especially useful. The collection is organized into two series: Academic Activities and Non-academic Activities.
