These records document the administrative and program history of the National Student Christian Federation. The NSCF was a Protestant Christian federation of denominational student movements, the Interseminary Movement, and foreign and home mission boards from Protestant churches. It was also the United States member of the World Student Christian Federation, and a related movement to the National Council of Churches in Christ in the U.S.A. The organization was created in 1959 when the Interseminary Movement, the Student Volunteer Movement for Foreign Missions, and the United Student Christian Council merged into one organization with the goal of creating an ecumenical community of concern on the college and university campus. These records include correspondence, meeting minutes, and reports illustrating the work of the NSCF.
