Sensitive Materials Statement

Manuscript collections and archival records may contain materials with sensitive or confidential information that is protected under federal or state right to privacy laws and regulations, the North Carolina Public Records Act (N.C.G.S. § 132 1 et seq.), and Article 7 of the North Carolina State Personnel Act (Privacy of State Employee Personnel Records, N.C.G.S. § 126-22 et seq.). Researchers are advised that the disclosure of certain information pertaining to identifiable living individuals represented in this collection without the consent of those individuals may have legal ramifications (e.g., a cause of action under common law for invasion of privacy may arise if facts concerning an individual's private life are published that would be deemed highly offensive to a reasonable person) for which the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill assumes no responsibility.

Since August 2017, we have added ethnic and racial identities for individuals and families represented in collections. To determine identity, we rely on self-identification; other information supplied to the repository by collection creators or sources; public records, press accounts, and secondary sources; and contextual information in the collection materials. Omissions of ethnic and racial identities in finding aids created or updated after August 2017 are an indication of insufficient information to make an educated guess or an individual's preference for identity information to be excluded from description. When we have misidentified, please let us know at wilsonlibrary@unc.edu.

The Human Sexuality Information and Counseling Service (HSICS) at UNC Chapel Hill was formed in October 1971. The peer counseling service aimed to share accurate information on many aspects of sexuality, refer students and other community members to local professionals and resources, and to provide one-on-one counseling on sexuality and relationships.

Records consist of promotional materials (including a pamphlet and campaign plan), drafts and notes for a booklet on sex, suggestions for discussion leaders, reports, presentations, materials related to the course Health Education 33 (HEED 33), essays on reproductive health and public health administrative practices, and project notes on campus mental health. Also included are recordings of two seminars led by Vic Schoenbach on sexual health and relationships. The recordings include student discussions of dating, gender expectations, and relationships.
