Archie Green reflects on his education and time as a librarian for the university’s Labor Institute. Green was hesitant to move to Urbana because it was not as progressive or exciting as San Francisco and it meant his wife and three kids would have to move their lives. As a university faculty member, Green served as the faculty advisor for the Campus Folksong Club. Green discusses the formation of the club, its members, and the musicians the club invited to perform.
