Academia, late 1960s-2002

This series contains materials related to Sylvia Wynter's career as a professor and administrator at Stanford University, the University of California San Diego, and other institutions. It includes teaching materials such as lecture notes, course syllabi and handouts, and reading lists, as well as administrative materials such as correspondence, memorandums, and reports related to Wynter's role as a faculty member at several universities, especially related to the African and African American Studies Department at Stanford. The Teaching and Lectures subseries contains extensive lecture notes, reading lists and course readers, and planning materials on courses Wynter developed and taught many times, such as "AAAS 115: Africa and Philosophy" and "AAAS 114: Africa and the Black Diaspora", as well as seminars and lecture series she gave as a guest lecturer, such as "September 11, Its Aftermath", and "Historical Construction? Or Cultural Code?", which have overlap with the Writings series. Many courses were not clearly identified. The Administrative Materials subseries includes materials documenting the Western core curriculum and multiculturalism debates at Stanford, as well as the organization No Humans Involved and the conference The Two Reservations, both founded and organized partly by Wynter, along with limited materials from other universities.
