This fact sheet lists the efforts the University of Richmond has made with integration and increasing campus diversity. It also mentions how students themselves have tried to engage with black communities. This sheet states that the University had "made constant and continuing efforts, through a variety of actions and programs, to comply with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964." The University claimed to make an active effort to recruit black students and make their nondiscrimination policies known to all. In the 1972-1973 academic year, the University of Richmond had 99 black full and part-time students, 11 Asian students, and 10 "Spanish Surnamed Americans" making minority students 2.1% of total enrollment.

The decision was made to continue the policy of not accepting African American students under the justification that it had been the policy for 124 years and there wasn’t yet enough pressure to change that structure. The report stated that the university relied on its alumni, friends, and the Baptists General Association of Virginia for “financial and other support” and that these constituents had not accepted the policy of desegregation. This document shows the power that financial supporters had on the social policies of the university.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource January 1960 Description An account of the resource The winter 1960 Alumni Bulletin featured the account of Park P. Dickerson (RC '55) and his time at University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa, as a Rotary Foundation Fellow. Dickerson discusses South Africa's culture, the people, race relations, and his own experiences. While Dickerson was in South Africa, he learned about race relations in the country: there were the "Europeans"/"whites" and "non-Europeans"/"non-whites." Dickerson defined apartheid as "the complete separation of the races in every walk of life," and "more comprehensive and consistent than the policy of segregation." The South African Nationalist Party supported and implemented apartheid because they believed that the Bantu peoples native to South Africans could develop socially, economically, and politically through total separation. The Nationalist Party envisioned separate territories for blacks and whites where each race would not have rights in the other race's territory. Dickerson outlined the implications of apartheid that he experienced while abroad, such as the legal segregation of University of Witwatersrand despite disagreement from the Chancellor and the school.

On March 8, 1971 President Modlin had a meeting with the President's Advisory Council during which several letters from alumni were read that expressed their concerns about Dick Gregory speaking on campus. Some alumni even decided to withhold their financial donations, but President Modlin defended the principle of free speech as essential to the University. The author states that "the speaker selection committees this year chose an unbalanced slate of speakers" as Dick Gregory and the other speakers of the lecture series "are highly critical of current America." The author asserts that this monopolizes free speech as the speakers are all critics and are not representative of a variety of viewpoints.

F. "Tip" Saunders, who wanted to change the Richmond Spider to the Richmond Confederates. He claimed that this would be a suitable change since the buildings in Richmond College were used as hospitals for the Confederate army. He started this movement in the Alumni Bulletin and the Alumni Bulletin offered two football tickets to the person who came up with the best letter in agreement with him, and two tickets to the writer of the letter in opposition to the change. He began to recruit sports writers on campus to begin to call Richmond the Confederates. Mac Pitt, student body president, made a speech stating that the name Spider should remain as other people would simply be confused. He directly opposed the alumni that wanted to change in his speech, and used Spider chants as a way of encouraging other students to oppose the change.
