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). The department produced the Campus Digest (1969-1971) and San José State College News/San José State University News (1966-1977), which served as one of the primary communication vehicles for the campus. This series also includes publicity information regarding the 1964 election and Proposition 2, a ballot measure created to provide grant funding for campus building construction projects in the California State College system.
