黑人学生会 Celebrates 50 Years
In the fall of 1966, a group of 20 black students came together to form United Students. Its mission: “to inform both black and white students of the Negro in this society and, 希望, promote more humanitarian attitudes toward the Negro in America.”
Over the course of two years, the group grew and became more visible on campus while developing a progressive list of demands: install a lecture series for prominent black speakers, create courses on black history and achievement, establish a black cultural center on campus, and make a more concerted effort to recruit minority students, 举几个例子.
While some of the demands were met, others had been ignored by college administration, prompting six students representing the newly named 黑人学生会 to stage a historic sit-in in a campus computer lab. Because of their efforts, an agreement was finally reached with then-president Dr. J. 肯尼斯·多纳休.
那是1969年5月.

“Change began very, very slowly. But it did begin,” says Spratling.
