- Interview with Richard Paschke by Barbara Roos, documenting the history of Grand Valley State's William James College. William James College was the third baccalaureate degree granting college for Grand Valley. It was originally designed to be an interdisciplinary, non-departmentalized college consisting of concentration programs, rather than majors. The college opened in 1971 and was discontinued in 1983 during a reorganization of Grand Valley State. Richard Paschke was a faculty member of William James College and longtime Grand Valley professor who retired as Professor Emeritus of Psychology. In this interview, Richard discusses the "hunger for knowledge" that unified the William James College community, how searching for self-identity bonded the faculty and students, and the youthful idealism of that place and time. This interview is part 1 of 3 for Richard Paschke.
