Description
1969. [Student Activism][Anti-Vietnam] El Gaucho, the University of California, Santa Barbara student newspaper, reporting on the November 15 Vietnam Moratorium, the anthropology department fight over Professor Bill Allen, and disputes over Black Studies and student power. Five issues dated November 10 to December 2, 1969, with front-page headlines including "Student groups call for unity," "Moratorium mobilizes to San Francisco," "Students demand public hearing," "Reform workshops created," "Moratorium activities finalized," "No funds for IFC, asks for Allen open hearing," and "Academic Senate's power mainly traditional," while interior pages carry editorials, letters, classified ads, and event notices for UCSB and Isla Vista. Named organizations and speakers including MECHA, BSU, GSA, Leg Council, the Academic Senate, Black Panther Chief of Staff David Hilliard, Joan Baez, Ralph Abernathy, and Don Luce anchor the run in the specific political language of California student activism rather than retrospective summary. El Gaucho. Vol. 50, nos. 34, 36, 37, 38, and 47. Santa Barbara, California: University of California, Santa Barbara, November 10 to December 2, 1969. Archive of 5 issues documenting antiwar organizing, faculty conflict, Black Studies governance, student government, environmental controversy, and campus debate over university authority. [1] Wilson, Becca, ed. El Gaucho. Santa Barbara, California: University of California, Santa Barbara, November 10, 1969. Vol. 50, no. 34. Front page coverage opens with "Student groups call for unity" and "Moratorium mobilizes to San Francisco," placing MECHA, BSU, and GSA beside plans for the coming antiwar demonstration. Interior pages with articles titled "Viet War tax protest, "Eclectic GGR brings happiness to all," and a large notice asking "Who Discovered America?," preserving activist controversy. [2] Wilson, Becca, ed. El Gaucho. Santa Barbara, California: University of California, Santa Barbara, November 12, 1969. Vol. 50, no. 36. Covers the Bill Allen controversy, with front-page headlines "Students demand public hearing" and "Moratorium emphasis on San Francisco," alongside a portrait captioned "BILL ALLEN / Tenured faculty want him out." The same issue also includes "Asian immigration depends on economics," tying antiwar mobilization and the Allen dispute to broader campus arguments over race, labor, and immigration. [3] Wilson, Becca, ed. El Gaucho. Santa Barbara, California: University of California, Santa Barbara, November 13, 1969. Vol. 50, no. 37. This issue centers on anti-Vietnam War protests including "Moratorium plans here include: marches / vigils / canvasses / picketing / rally," supplemented by an "Official thorough moratorium schedule" listing Bank of America picketing, a Lompoc draft-resisters vigil, and the San Francisco caravan. "Reform workshops created" and "Ordered channel drilling could bring earthquakes" place antiwar action beside university reform and environmental politics, while "Krishna brings consciousness" retains the heterogeneity of the campus paper. [4] Wilson, Becca, ed. El Gaucho. Santa Barbara, California: University of California, Santa Barbara, November 17, 1969. Vol. 50, no. 38. Published after the November 15 march, this issue leads with "Peace hopes bring thousands together," "No funds for IFC, asks for Allen open hearing," and "I.V. - Santa Barbara rent ratio same." The continuation pages preserve the Moratorium photograph essay for November 15 at Santa Barbara and San Francisco, with slogans including "OUT NOW," "NOT ONE MORE DEAD!," "VETERANS FOR PEACE," and "BUSINESS AS USUAL TODAY IS MURDER IN VIETNAM," giving the run direct antiwar language rather than later paraphrase. [5] Wilson, Becca, ed. El Gaucho. Santa Barbara, California: University of California, Santa Barbara, December 2, 1969. Vol. 50, no. 47. Headlines include "Academic Senate's power mainly traditional," "Poll covers a variety: politics, EG, I.V. etc.," "Slough forum today has pros and cons," and "Free panel tomorrow discusses U.S. & French student movements." Its interior spread, headed "USIA film on Vietnam war-support, dissent at home-assumes the existence of Nixon's 'silent majority,'" and the surrounding classifieds and local advertising preserve how foreign policy debate, campus polling, environmental dispute, and everyday student commerce occupied the same issue. These issues were printed during a month when UCSB students were organizing transport to San Francisco for the November 15 Moratorium, confronting anthropology chair Geoffrey Gaherty over Bill Allen, debating the authority of the Academic Senate and Leg Council, and following speakers such as David Hilliard and Don Luce as part of a broader California campus political crisis. The run is especially useful because it preserves the language of process as it was happening, from "public hearing" and "open hearing" to "marches," "vigils," "canvasses," and "picketing," while also retaining letters pages, classifieds, cinema listings, and local advertisements that locate student protest within the ordinary print environment of Santa Barbara and Isla Vista. Newsprint toned with expected horizontal folds, edge chipping, short tears, creasing, and small marginal losses; text and headlines remain clear. Overall very good condition. A five-issue El Gaucho run covering UCSB antiwar mobilization, faculty conflict, and university governance as concurrent campus struggles.
