Summary: Paul Schroeder attended the U of I from 1964 to 1968. He was a student member of the board of the Illini Publishing Company and served in the student government. His main focus in activism was educational reform, specifically coming out of student government. He created a program called Freshman Seminar to cultivate student leaders by having students visit with professors in their homes and offices. Schroeder hoped to create a more personable setting than a classroom.
