Brooklyn College Acting President Peck's April 18, 1969 Letter Indicating a Meeting Scheduled to Discuss the Students' 18 Demands

This April 18, 1969 letter from Acting BC President George Peck confirmed his office's open communications with Puerto Rican and African-American student activists regarding the 18 demands presented by the students earlier in April.

This item is part of the Puerto Rican Studies at Brooklyn College (PRSBC) Collection, which covers the largely Puerto Rican-led student movement at Brooklyn College (CUNY) during the late 1960s and early 1970s that fought for the creation of the Puerto Rican Studies Department at the college. The collection includes oral history interviews with pioneering student activists, photographs of participants and their struggles, and other archival materials on the fight to create the Puerto Rican Studies Department drawn from the Archives and Special Collections library at Brooklyn College.
