MoreThe Slater Newman Papers, 1932-2014, contains notes, correspondence, administrative records, and other papers from the career of Slater E. Newman (1924-2015), academic cognitive psychologist and human rights organizer. The bulk of the materials in the collection were created between 1957, when Newman joined the North Carolina State University Department of Psychology, and 2014. Earlier papers relate to Newman's education and early career in research, teaching, and the United States military. Newman founded, led, and participated in many professional and human rights organizations; papers related to these organizational involvements, along with Newman's teaching and research files and his vast correspondence with fellow academics and activists, form the majority of the collection. Physically, most of the materials are typed and handwritten loose pages, notebooks, and computer printouts; there are also some newspaper clippings and bound volumes, and a small number of photographs and artifacts. Academic psychologist and human rights activist Slater E. Newman (1924-2015) was a member of the psychology faculty at North Carolina State University from 1957 to his retirement in 2003. In his research in cognitive psychology Newman investigated learning and memory, focusing in his later work on how people learn Braille and other tactile alphabets. He was an active member and leader in several professional organizations of psychologists. In addition to his academic research, Newman was deeply involved in human rights organizing. His first political projects represented in this collection dealt with academic freedom, but a major theme of his activism was international human rights, in particular promoting United States ratification of United Nations conventions. Newman helped to found and lead a number of human rights organizations, including the American Civil Liberties Union affiliate in North Carolina and the Human Rights Coalition of North Carolina. At NC State University, he advocated for annual campus events teaching about and celebrating human rights.
