Abstract
The collection of the Percy Ellis Sutton SEEK and College Discovery Programs contains materials of various categories, mostly related to the SEEK Department at Brooklyn College. The administration, plans, and reports papers constitute the majority of the collection. Along with these files, this collection provides details about the SEEK and CD structure, as well as summer programs, basic skills, remedial programs, and others. As these special programs are geared towards improving education accessibility, much information can also be found about students, such as alumni biographies, reports on expectations, outcomes, motivation, retention, and graduation. Furthermore, newspaper clippings, SEEK and CD newsletters, a draft of a commemorative journal, and photographs are materials that help tell the history and mission of these two special programs of the City University of New York.
