Historical note

Studies at CCICS are distinguished by their interdisciplinary nature in the social sciences and humanities with an emphasis on ethnic and racial issues as they apply to basic urban studies.
Scope and Contents note
The Center for Inner City Studies Records include memoranda, correspondence, bulletins and copies of Inner City Issues, a publication of the Concerned Graduate Organization of CCICS.
