John Harvey Bunzel was an American academic. He served as president of San Jose State University from 1970 to 1978 and was a senior research fellow at the Hoover Institution since 1978. He was formerly a member of the United States Commission on Civil Rights. [3]
Bunzel graduated from Kent School in 1942,a AB in political science from Princeton University,an MA in sociology from Columbia University,and a PhD in political science from the University of California,Berkeley. He served in the United States Army 1943–1946.
Upon returning from the Army in 1946,Bunzel helped found the Princeton Liberal Union and was its first president. [4] [lower-alpha 1] An unaffiliated student organization active from 1946 to 1951,the Liberal Union adopted a platform that embraced several progressive positions but foremost among them was opposition to racial and religious discrimination,a cause which they actively and effectively pursued within Princeton itself. Fulfilling Bunzel's goal,in the fall of 1949 the Liberal Union worked with NAACP president Walter White to send recruitment letters to over 500 historically black high schools [lower-alpha 2] encouraging students to apply to Princeton, [5] after which three were accepted. [6] [7]
John Bunzel ’46,whose education had been interrupted by his service in World War II,returned to campus in 1946 to finish his final two years of college. He later said his time in the Army had sparked a passion for civil rights. He led Princeton University students who shared Broderick’s commitments to form the Liberal Union in 1946 and served as its president until his graduation in 1948. [8]
From 1970 to 1978,Bunzel was the president of San Jose State University. During his administration,he appointed a greater number of women to prominent administrative positions than any other California State University. His initiatives included expanding the Moss Landing Marine Laboratories,and opening the Steinbeck Center and Nuclear Science Facility. Additionally,under his leadership,programs in Religious Studies,Jewish Studies,and Women’s Studies were established. [9]

Sally Frank sued the three all-male eating clubs at Princeton University in 1978 for denying her on the basis of her gender. Over ten years later,in 1990 the eating clubs were defined as "public accommodation" and court ordered to become co-ed thanks to Sally Frank,her attorney Nadine Taub and the Women's Rights Litigation Clinic of Rutgers Law School. The eating clubs argued that they were completely private and separate from the university,giving them the right to sex discrimination. After many rounds in the courts,this argument eventually failed. The winning argument stated that the clubs were in fact not separate,and instead functioned as an arm of the university itself. This meant that the clubs were in the end covered by New Jersey's anti-discrimination law and forced to admit women.
