              <text> The editorial staff writes that they support the BSMU's recommendations that "the college should admit more black students so that by 1979, 10 percent of the student body be black." The article talks about the administrative concern that it would be necessary to lower the College's academic requirements for admission. </text>

              <text>"Is the college ready to accept a lower average standard of academic credentials in a freshman class? Is Middlebury with its low endowment ready to accept black students most of whom will not be able to contribute financially after they have graduated? Is the school willing to risk its prestige on an unprecedented commitment? Is the College prepared to cope with the needs and demands of a powerful group of black students? ... These are the questions which must be answered before there can be any trust; they must be answered affirmatively before there can be significant implementation of the King Commission program."&#13;
&#13;
"Middlebury is approaching the problem of implementing the Commission recommendation backwards. Special programs are in the works we are told, but no specific commitment has been made to finding the black students to use them."</text>
