Title A name given to the resource Twilight Examines Minority Life: Black Students Speak ON College Life Subject The topic of the resource According to this article, only 54 of the 1,900 students at the College are "minority" students. The College uses many tactics in recruiting black students in competition with other NESCACS and the Ivy League, such as Black Cultural Weekend and a brochure that talks about Middlebury's "commitment" to minority students, which is given to prospective students. Current minority students voice their disapproval of these tactics and basically describe it as a superficial advertising move that does not carry on to affect the day-to-day life/campus culture of black students.

A large percentage of blacks suddenly appear on campus for a weekend, and they think that's the way it usually is when it's actually not." "The brochure states, 'Middlebury College has made a strong commitment to minority students. We make special efforts to seek out qualified minority candidates.' Bruce Tate, a black freshman who had not seen the brochure, said 'If I had seen a brochure, it would have made me have second thoughts about coming here. I would have felt different from other freshmen." "'Middlebury fails to realize that if you're going to bring people up here, you have to have a community, a support system, for them to live in."- Gay "Gay said she believes the administration should make more of an attempt to aid black students in establishing a social life and a support system... Gay said, 'We're forced to create and to maintain our own community. But we're students just like everyone else. We have no time. You can't expect students to do that.'" administrative action BSU racial diversity student life Twilight Commission Report Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Twilight Examines Minority Life: Report Terms College ' Still Too White" Subject The topic of the resource Twilight Committee completes its 2-year review of "minority" life at Middlebury. The report made its own recommendations in the major areas that are mentioned in the MLK Committee Report (minority faculty, student life curriculum, recruitment), as well as reviewing the state of the King Committee proposals. Recommendations included hiring more minority faculty (immediate hiring of visiting minority professors for winter semester"), "the creation of 'two minority studies' concentrations," and an increase in efforts to recruit minority students, and encouragement of cultural organizations (i.e. BSU) to basically take more initiative.

Title A name given to the resource Active recruitment of minorities practices Subject The topic of the resource 22 "minority" high school students visited Middlebury where they had discussions with faculty members, attended classes and workshops, and attended a BSU-sponsored party. The high schoolers were primarily from DC, Philly, NJ, NYC, and Long Island. The College had been doing annual recruitment of "minority" students for 8-9 years but this was the first year that the College arranged/ financed the transportation for the students. According to the students, this was very impactful, because the financial burden of visiting Vermont would have dissuaded them from considering Middlebury as a higher education option.
