Coverage

"The Report calls for a much higher and more immediate priority for admitting disadvantaged students and for distributing and seeking funds to aid these students. The Committee recommends also: expanding the recruitment of black and disadvantaged students; admitting 'risk' applicants, whose board score lie in the 300's; offering pre-college and freshman year programs as a transition to college type study."

"In other areas, the Special Committee suggests: including aspects of race, poverty, and urban problems in Middlebury's 'dominantly white' curriculum; cooperating with special projects for minority group high school students; sponsoring with the other Colleges in Vermont, a post-high school academy."
