Abstract
This chapter discusses the development of Asian American studies at San Francisco State College in relation to community control and academic autonomy. Emerging from the Third world Strike, the most radical aspect of the SF State program was an institutional structure predicated on the slogan of “community autonomy.” This phrase meant that Asian American communities should control the programs that were intended to serve the community's needs. However, community control is necessarily antithetical to the principle of the modern research university, which is faculty control. In order to establish itself in the university, therefore, the program had to eliminate community control in favor of academic autonomy. This question of autonomy was fundamental to the formation of black studies since that was the paradigmatic model on which the other ethnic studies programs were based.
