Anderson began the report by explaining Westhampton College's recruiting efforts from the fall which included visiting thirty-two "Traditional College Day Programs of selected Virginia High Schools" (and two Maryland high schools). However, there was a decline in attendance to these admissions events by students and their parents compared to previous years. Anderson and the other admissions officers believed that interest would rise again once "the racially integrated school population becomes more stabilized." There had been an increase of out-of-state visitors, however many of the people interested in the University wanted to make sure it didn't have a "girls school atmosphere" because many had the desire to mix with men both socially and educationally. Westhampton College students had pointed out their desire to have better racial and socioeconomic diversity, so a dozen Westhampton College students took it upon themselves to return to their high schools to recruit black students. Some students even asked if they could travel with admissions officers. Anderson was "sympathetic" to their efforts but didn't want it to "jeopardize their own academic programs." The students even organized a "Black Day" on April 27, 1971, with the intentions of having eighty black high school students visit campus for the day. <p>Westhampton College accepted 1,884 students and 121 accepted their offer. Among that 121 were a black applicant and a Greek applicant who requested additional time to accept the offer to sort out their finances. Employment opportunities were less than sufficient that year as many students were forced to settle for part-time work. She ended the report by expressing her gratitude for her and her co-workers' time working for the Westhampton College Office of Admissions. She did so because faculty had voted to combine the admissions offices of Westhampton and Richmond College into one overarching department. That year, they enrolled 33 out-of-state and 88 Virginia women in the freshman class. Nine black women applied, three were offered admission, and one accepted the offer. The majority of applicants were Baptist. 7 Jewish women applied, however, only 2 were accepted and enrolled. SAT scores and school rank numbers were also included.</p> Subject The topic of the resource College integration College students, Black Diversity Minority college students--Recruiting Race Religion Student housing Women college students Language A language of the resource English Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context UA6.2.4.16.15-19710426.pdf Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Annual Report from Director of Admissions and Placement, Westhampton College, 26 April 1971, RG 6.2.4.

At this time, Modlin served as the President of the Richmond Chamber of Commerce; the speech explains that the Chamber is concerned about the traffic problems in Richmond. They believe that constructing a freeway would solve this problem and the speech outlines three reasons why the Chamber supports the freeway: it will be effective, convenient, and safe for people; it has been endorsed by every traffic authority; and it will be "soundly financed." Towards the end of the speech, Brill writes, "It is most unfortunate that a Freeway cannot be located and constructed anywhere without affecting the interests of some individuals, business firms, and institutions." However, it does not go into detail about who these people are and the negative impact the freeway may have on these groups. <a href="http://dig.library.vcu.edu/cdm/landingpage/collection/jwh" target="_blank">The Richmond-Petersburg Turnpike (now part of I-95) would eventually be run through Jackson Ward, a historic black neighborhood in Richmond, which was also the center of economic vitality for black Richmonders.

Califano Jr, to various university presidents. He states that he has enclosed the remarks he delivered at the commencement at the College of New Rochelle in New Rochelle, New York. In the speech, which is 10 pages, Calfano emphasizes the themes of diversity in higher education and the desire of the federal government not to unduly intrude into the operation of academic institutions. In the speech he quotes President Lyndon Johnson by saying education was the first work of the nation. He also references President Carter’s commitment to education. Calfano warns that if we use a quick fix to fix the United States education system we could eventually start to look like "Mussolini’s Italy." Califano says that small liberal arts colleges across America, such as the College of New Rochelle, have played a drastic role in the education system. Calfano references the fact that the Federal Government has recently become much more involved in higher education, which can be seen in the fact that many graduates are graduating because they got Federal assistance. Califano says that higher education will work, even without help from Washington. Calfano discusses the many graduates in the crowd, such as an 81 year-old woman named Mrs. May Dobson. Calfano congratulates the university for recently founding a new institution: The School of New Resources. He ends the speech with a parochial comment.
