Terms and Conditions

This collection consists of the records of a national coalition formed to coordinate opposition to U.S. involvement in the war in Vietnam among college and high school students. It includes steering committee minutes, correspondence, press materials, activity files, and financial records. Best represented is the early period (1966-1968) when the national office was headquartered in New York City. SMC grew to become one of the largest, longest-lived, and in some ways the most successful of the peace organizations. This success in mustering support for various mass actions arose from the committee's strict avoidance of civil disobedience and adherence to the policy of non-exclusion.
