The SEEK History Project documents the rich history of the Queens College Percy Ellis Sutton SEEK Program. The project was initiated in 2019 by Special Collections and Archives of the Queens College Library in partnership with the SEEK Program. The initiative is supported by Queens Memory, a local history project jointly sponsored by the Queens Public Library and Queens College.
The project consists of oral history interviews, processing archival records, and public programming, with a focus on the SEEK rebellion of 1968/1969 as well as subsequent joys and challenges experienced by faculty, staff, and students of the program over its 55 year plus existence.
Obden Mondesir served as the Oral Historian from 2019-2021. Annie Tummino, Head of Special Collections and Archives, serves as the Project Director.
This guide will be updated as more resources become accessible and as the project progresses.
