Coverage

"A call for more black faculty members is prefaced by an admonition that only one percent of Ph.D. Candidates in the United States are black. The Committee had to consider whether the current academic criteria of the faculty should take priority over other forms of experience-- ghetto life, prison life, and working-class life. The suggestion is that it should."

"Citing a statement of black students last spring, the Report agrees that 'a wider spectrum of American society should be represented on the Board of Trustees.' But If the Trustees are to serve a financial function, then the board must consist largely of well-to-do business and professional men-- black or white."
