Spectator Records, 1966-1970

Description

The Spectator began its existence as a weekly student newspaper in January 1966, when it was recognized as a registered Indiana University organization by the I.U. Board of Student Publications. This charter was revoked by the University administration in 1968, but the paper remained in publication as an independent paper until 1970. The Collection includes operational and financial records, correspondence, submissions, and back issues of the newspaper.
