Title A name given to the resource Students of color neglected Subject The topic of the resource Letter to President McCardell and Deans in the form of a student op-ed. This letter is calling for significant administrative change/action in order to support students of color. Authors call for aggressive recruitment and retainment tactics for faculty/students of color, as well as calls for "curricular changes that reflect a dedication to multicultural education". The author also points out how many cultural organizations that carry a majority of the burden of retaining and supporting students of color are student-run. They receive no compensation and limited administrative support for the massive job that they do in terms of supporting/protecting students of color.

The students are, in fact, retaining themselves without adequate financial or personal support from the college, this is not their responsibility. They came here to get an education.... not to become overwhelmed by a complex burden of survival, educating the community about their cultures, and academic work. These groups need both money and administrators who can relieve that burden."

Title A name given to the resource Administration pays lip service to diversity Subject The topic of the resource Op-ed voices that the administration has been inefficient and inactive in regard to the demands made by the AAA and Alianza. The Martin Luther King Report (1969), the Twilight Report (1982), and the Report to Enhance the Experience of African-American and Hispanic-American Students (1991) were apparently full of the College's promises that had been "neglected and forgotten". Op-ed then refers to the College's potential appointment of Charles M. Burdick as representative for students of color to the president, who the authors deemed "completely unqualified", due to his lack of "formal education in [African-American and Latinx] cultures or history".

AUTHORS' DEMANDS: "The dire need for recruitment and retention of students of color, the diversification of the academic curriculum to include issues pertaining to African-American, Asian- American, and Latino culture, the dearth of faculty and administrative members specifically qualified to represent and interact with students of color, the administrational and financial support of the Middlebury College Bi-Cultural Living and Learning Center, the paucity of multicultural faculty role models available to students of color."

Title A name given to the resource Students rally for greater diversity Subject The topic of the resource Students led and organized a protest outside of Old Chapel against administrative handling of "minority affairs" and voiced a desire for greater racial diversity within the student body. Rally was sponsored by AAA, Alianza, and the Middlebury Asian Student Organization. Specifically, the protesters were against the administration's consideration of Charles M. Burdick '63 as assistant to the president on minority affairs, due to Burdick being "completely underqualified and incapable of representing the diverse cultures which the position's criteria required". There was also the concern about the lacking racial diversity amongst the faculty itself. Following the protest, President McCardell addressed the group and met with some students following the rally. This all resulted in Burdick NOT being hired for the position described above.

He is essentially trying to turn the fact that what the RNC did was racist "on its head", by pointing out how the DNC was complicit in the usage of Willie Horton as a racist and how the RNC was "villainized" and wasn't, because "Fact #3: The Republican commercials never mentioned the fact that Horton was black."

Title A name given to the resource Asian Americans Endure Racial Stereotypes Subject The topic of the resource Student op-ed identifies the varying racial stereotypes and false perceptions that they have to endure, and how these correlate with biased attitudes, acts, and practices. The author addresses the "model minority" myth, as well as the antagonism toward the Asian-American community over the false idea that it is to blame for high American unemployment. Specifically, the author speaks about the microaggressions and experiences of racism that they have personally felt at Middlebury, as well as the underrepresentation of Asian-American students at the College, and the lack of administrative resources for students of color to report incidents of bias/harassment.

"I stress measures to increase interaction between people of different backgrounds and races. And this is why I am concerned about the large underrepresentation of Asian students at Middlebury." "I can only ask that both students and administration take steps in recognizing and addressing the issue... It has only been this year that Asian-Americans have been classified as a minority group in the admissions department. Thus, when the college speaks about increasing diversity on campus, I do not think we are given equal consideration as a minority group." asian-american campus culture model minority myth racism student life Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
