The Yuppie Handbook 1984 Calendar
Posted : admin On 11.08.2019- Yuppie (short for ‘young urban professional’ or ‘young upwardly mobile professional’) is a term that refers to a member of the upper middle class or upper class in their 20s or 30s. It first came into use in the early-1980s and largely faded from American popular culture in the late-1980s, due to the 1987 stock market crash and the early 1990s recession.

General Sixties Courses Literature Film & Popular Culture Viet Nam War
Professor: Eric Roberts
Institution: Stanford
Date: Spring Quarter 1988
Listing: Stanford Workshops on Political and Social Issues 166
1. SYLLABUS
SWOPSI 166 meets every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon from 4:15 to 5:30 in the Toyon Hall Lounge. In addition, there will be a film session each week, plus several other events which will be announced in a weekly calendar handout.
In the class schedules below, all required readings are found in the course reader, which is available at the Stanford Bookstore. Recommended readings are indicated using author-year reference numbers. The full citations are included in the bibliography later in this handout.
Tuesday March 29 | IntroductionThe first session of class will be devoted to a brief overview of the course and a discussion of the reasons people have for participating. What is attractive about that period? What aspects are most interesting? How are our images of the 1960s formed? |
Thursday March 31 | Berkeley in the Sixties -- Images of a DecadeAs the recent media focus on the events of twenty years ago make clear, the 1960s were a multi-media event. To provide some visual impressions, this class consists of special presentation of parts of the film Berkeley in the Sixties, a work-in-progress by Mark Kitchell. |
Tuesday April 5 | The 1960s -- Overview of a DecadeIn this class, we will review the events and movements that shaped the decade of the 1960s. The purpose of this discussion is to build a framework for understanding the history of the decade as a whole and to emphasize the interrelationships between the events of the period and the political movements of the time. Required reading:

Thursday April 7 | Growing Up Absurd -- America in the 1950sPolitical activism in the early 1960s was shaped by the society from which the participants emerged, and it is important to derive some image of the pre-existing culture. Topics covered include: McCarthyism, the suburban mystique, and the forces encouraging conformity (it is interesting to draw some comparisons here between the media image of the 'yuppie' and the 1950s image of success). In addition, this discussion will include certain events and movements from the 1950s which were harbingers of the movements to come, including the emergence of the 'beat' generation and the early civil rights movement years. A short paper (1-2 pages) on your impressions of the 1960s is due today. Required reading:
Additional sources:
|
Tuesday April 12 | We Shall Overcome -- The Early Civil Rights MovementThis session continues the discussion of the previous class and traces the history of the civil rights movement through the early 1960s. The discussion includes coverage of the Freedom Rides, King's 1963 March on Washington, the evolution of SNCC, and Freedom Summer. Beyond this description of movement events, we will also focus on the climate of repression and the incidents of police brutality arrayed against that movement throughout the South. Required reading:

Thursday April 14 |
|
| The Civil Rights Years -- Personal RecollectionsProfessor Clay Carson, director of the Martin Luther King Papers Project and author of In Struggle: SNCC and the Black Awakening of the 1960s, will talk about his own involvement with the civil rights movement and the impact of that movement today. Additional sources:
|
Thursday April 21 | Hearts and Minds -- Images of the War in VietnamThis class consists of an outline history of U.S. involvement in Vietnam, starting with the U.S. assumption of responsibility from the French in 1954 and carrying on through the fall/liberation of Saigon in 1975. After surveying the history, the class will be in a better position to view the situation in Vietnam and try to gain a sense of what it was like to be there, both for the Vietnamese and the U.S. soldier. Required reading:

Tuesday April 26 | And it's one, two, three, what are we fighting for? -- The War at HomeBeginning with this class, the goal is to shift the perspective from Vietnam itself to the United States: What was it like to be here? Ira Sandperl, a local activist who was deeply involved in non-violent resistance against the war, will discuss the early phases of the antiwar movement in the United States. This discussion will concentrate on the evolution of attitudes toward the war in the United States and analyze the reasons for the changes in that perspective toward the end of the decade. Required reading:

Thursday April 28 | I am just a student, sir -- The Genesis of Student ActivismDavid Harris, Stanford student body president in 1965 and one of the founders of the Resistance, will talk about the evolution of student activism at Stanford and his own personal odyssey during the decade. Required reading:
|
Tuesday May 3 | Revolution for the Hell of It -- 1968The student movement and various allied movements against the war in Vietnam reached the height of their power in 1968. This was a year of extraordinary events: the My Lai massacre in Vietnam, Lyndon Johnson's decision not to seek reelection to the presidency, the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy, a major building occupation at Columbia, and the Democratic National Convention that turned Chicago into what seemed like a war zone. This class session will concentrate on the events and images of that year, and include a discussion of related international events. Required reading:

Thursday May 5 | On Strike! Shut it Down! -- The Campus RevoltIn the next two years, the campus-based radicalism responsible for the 1968 occupation at Columbia spread rapidly to other campuses. In 1969, the media spotlight was on Harvard and the occupation (later, the bust) at University Hall. In 1970, the revelation of the bombing of Cambodia led to widespread demonstrations in colleges throughout the United States. This expression of student anger grew all the more determined after the killings of students at Kent and Jackson State. For part of this class, Ed Kirshner, an amateur photographer from San Francisco, will present an eye-opening slide show from the Berkeley People's Park demonstrations of 1969 and the repression that followed. Required reading:
Additional sources:
|
Tuesday May 10 | Turn on, Tune in, Drop out -- The Psychedelic RevolutionOne of the most controversial aspects of the 1960s culture (and one which has been extremely important in molding the popular image of the period) is the freewheeling attitude toward the use of drugs within the youth culture. In this class, we will examine the evolution of the psychedelic culture and assess its historical impact. Vic Lovell, who was an associate of the Perry Lane commune at that time, will provide first-hand recollections. Required reading:

Film:
|
Thursday May 12 | By the time we got to Woodstock -- Culture and MusicThe image of the 1960s is characterized as much by the culture of the time as by its political movements. In this class, we will try to identify some of the forces that shaped the development of that culture, concentrating to some extent on music and its role in the events of the decade. This will also be 'Sixties Dress-Up Day' in class. Required reading:
Additional sources:
|
Tuesday May 17 | Goodbye to All That -- The Rebirth of FeminismAt this point in the course, I intend to move away from the events of the 1960s themselves and concentrate on the movements that grew out of that period, particularly those that have remained viable over the intervening years. The most dramatic movement to gain in strength as the 1970s began was almost certainly the 'second wave' of feminism. Patricia Polhemus, who was active in both the antiwar and early feminist movements at Stanford, will discuss that transition. Required reading:
Additional sources:
Film:
|
Thursday May 19 | Out of the Closets and into the Streets -- Gay ActivismAnother important movement to be given strength from the activism of the 1960s was the struggle for gay rights, which dates much of its modern history from the Stonewall riots in 1969. This is of particular relevance in the Bay Area which has been a major focus of the movement. Required reading:
Additional sources:
|
Tuesday May 24 | Looking Backward -- Images and RealityIn this class, we will look backward and consider how our historical understanding of the 1960s is affected by the media and by culturally-imposed assumptions. What factors influence our historical perspective? How can we overcome the biases? The second short paper describing how your perspective of the 1960s has changed is due today. Required reading:
Additional sources:
Film:
|
Thursday May 26 | Looking Forward -- Lessons for TomorrowThis class will consist of a general discussion of the relevance of the 1960s to modern political movements. What do we gain by looking backward to the activism of that time? What knowledge can we adopt in charting new strategies for change? What problems of the period must we avoid in future periods of activism? Final papers are due today. Required reading:

2. REQUIREMENTS
This course is offered on a pass/no credit basis only and counts for three units of credit at Stanford. Successful completion of the course requires:
- A respectable attendance at class meetings and special events.
- Two short papers (1-2 pages) that detail the evolution of your own impressions of the 1960s. The first of these is written at the beginning of the term; the second is due at the end of the course and will include a discussion of how your views have changed.
- A final paper (5-10 pages). This may be either a purely historical paper or an analysis of some current social or political movement from the perspective of the activist movements of the 1960s.
- Successful completion of the action project (see below).
3. ACTION PROJECTS
The action projects listed below are to be thought of only as tentative examples. Use your imagination.
- Organize a campus workshop that highlights the historical continuity of some issue of current concern. Ideally, this could include participation by Stanford alumnae/i who were actively involved in this area in previous years and have a personal perspective on how things have (or have not) changed.
- Prepare a pamphlet describing the history of activism on the Stanford campus which would be suitable for distribution during new-student orientation in the fall.
- By writing to former students who were previously involved in political action projects, begin to develop a network of activist alumnae/i who are interested in contributing to current political activities.
- Prepare a radio broadcast for the Stanford station which presents a history of activism in the 1960s through the music of the period.
- Design a game in the 'Trivial Pursuit' tradition that concentrates on the not-so-trivial aspects of recent history and specifically on those areas where important ideas and information have been lost from the popular consciousness.
- Organize a public event on the relationship of the 1960s to the Stanford of today. You should include activists from that time or some other well-known participants to ensure a reasonable audience.
