Cooper Union Forum

A series of lectures at Cooper Union, coordinated with and broadcast on WNYC.

While Cooper Union hosts hundreds of public lectures in its Great Hall, these events (1949-1970) were specifically coordinated with WNYC.  The subjects presented here are extremely appropriate for the accessible, no-cost university, as well as WNYC: the bulk of these recordings contemplate the future of educational radio and television.
