    Students for a Democratic Society: A Successful Failure?
    (Robert D. Clark Honors College, University of Oregon, 2003-12-11) Abbott, Justin
    The Students for a Democratic Society, or SDS, were characterized by their fervent, enthusiastic discontent, their lofty ideals, and their incapacitating lack of organization. The group, both nationally and locally, undoubtedly strayed far from its foundations, a downward spiral culminating in the SDS’ ultimate factionalization and collapse. Despite its unfortunate an ungraceful demise, the SDS has left a legacy that still benefits us, in one way or another, today.
