BoardBlack Brown Coalition Meeting Presentation
A representative of the Black Brown Coalition addressed the administration regarding a list of 27 demands previously presented to the institution's president. The presentation emphasized the need for concrete action and a definite commitment from the administration rather than vague discussions. Specific demands discussed included the initiation of a Black Studies program, the hiring of a Black counselor for student advisory, the elimination of discrimination in off-campus housing, the inclusion of Black professors for relevant courses, a requirement for teaching disadvantaged minority group children in the education program, and the proportionate representation of Hispanic students in the laboratory school.
