Carleton Student Association (CSA) Records, 1930-1980 | Carleton College Archives

Scope and Contents: Record group is most important because of the long and fairly complete set of meeting minutes it contains (1947-72), and the wealth of information about the activities and concerns of the CSA during the 1960s.  Social policy receives a great deal of attention, as does religion, academic affairs, and student participation in the governance of the College.  The budget committee materials are noteworthy primarily as indications of the rise and fall of various student organizations and, occasionally, to the politics of money within the student community.  Material worthy of specific note include the 1938 student opinion poll, the Publications Board minutes, and the documents relating to electioneering.
