United States Student Press Association

United States Student Press Association

The United States Student Press Association (USSPA) was a national organization of campus newspapers and editors active in the 1960s. It formed a national news agency called College Press Service (CPS). USSPA was developed as a program of the National Student Association (NSA). USSPA later became independent, then suffered financial setbacks in the early 1970s, and disbanded. The College Press Service was spun off and became a progressive alternative news collective in Denver, Colorado. It, too, later folded, selling its name to a commercial enterprise, and distributing the funds to progressive groups in Denver. In the mid 1960s, radical staff members of CPS split off from the group and established Liberation News Service (LNS).

Early 70s luminaries included Barry Holtzclaw, Linda Hanley, Amanda Spake, Nick DeMartino [http://recollectionbooks.com/ David Brown] (aka [http://www.eskimo.com/~recall/bleed/today.htm BleedMeister] ), [http://www.thestranger.com/seattle/Content?oid=24860 Gus Hellthaler] (aka [http://www.shmoe.biz/bios.htm Joe Schmoe] )
