Series Scope and Content Summary
The Office of Public Relations and Publications was created in 1953 under the leadership of President John T. Wahlquist (1952-1964). This series consists of newsletters, two of which were produced by San José State and the third is a national educational newsletter entitled Impact (1959-1974).
