Newspaper Articles, 2001
Scope and Contents
Materials in this collection were compiled mainly by T. Cay Rowe (Director of Media Relations and Publications) regarding the San Marcos 10, a group of ten students who were suspended from Southwest Texas State University in 1969 after refusing to disband their protest of the Vietnam War. In 2001 Texas State University invited the ten former students back to campus to participate in a Chautauqua event. Various members of the San Marcos 10 have reunited on campus on other occasions, including on the ten year anniversary in 1979 and the fiftieth anniversary in 2019.
This collection consists of three series. Series I consists of newspaper clippings, information regarding the court cases, and original 8x10 black and white photos from the 1969 protest. Series II consists of newspaper articles, copies of articles, and information regarding a reunion held at the university in 2001. Series III contains information regarding other San Marcos 10 reunions. Arranged chronologically within each series.
