"Admission of Negro Girls Provides Difficult Situation"
Subject
The topic of the resource
Recruitment and retention of students of color at Ursinus College
Description
An account of the resource
On May 23, 1968, Linda Richtmyre writes in The Ursinus Weekly
illustrating the necessity to actively acknowledge and the act of seeking after "the prospect of inclusion of any Negro girls in the next freshman class." There were difficulties seeking out such inclusion through Office of Admission. The financial aid offices of bigger universities would often offer financial grants to promote their diversity, which raised concern to students at Ursinus. The author made apparent of the difficult situation Ursinus and its students try attracting a very marginalized group of people in America: black and female. There was a concern in how the students could "recruit" black women to Ursinus.

Ursinus College campus, 2012
Description
An account of the resource
This article from the March 1st, 2012 edition of the Ursinus College Grizzly newspaper announces the beginning of a retreat for the college’s Board of Trustees. At this meeting the board plans to discuss a strategic diversity plan based on three campus diversity reports. These reports come from the Teagle Home Team, the Faculty Committee on Diversity, and the Presidential Committee on Race and Equality. There is a note from then-president Dr. Bobby Fong that the three recommendations “sometimes diverge”, and that the largest of these divergences concerns the implementation of a specific Chief Diversity Officer position (which one report suggests and the other two deem unnecessary). The report which argues for the new position asserts that the most pressing issues affecting campus diversity are those of “visibility and transparency,” and such a person would provide structure and clarity to all of the “diversity work” on campus. The article closes with the information that the Ursinus community can publicly discuss the reports after spring recess, and that Collegeville residents can contribute their ideas online. This article displays part of the back and forth discussions, particularly in 1987-1988, regarding the best ways to recruit and retain students of color.

Description
An account of the resource
This Ursinus Grizzly newspaper article from September 23, 1988 coincides with the release of the first official Ursinus College Bridge Program report describing and assessing the Bridge Program. The article goes on to explain what the program is and why it is significant, pointing out that “ethnic and cultural diversity has not been a hallmark of the college,” and calling the Bridge Program “one of the most innovative endeavors Ursinus has taken.” It details the courses taken by the “Bridgers” and some of the field trips and side programs as well. These included introduction to the college community, practice in the Word Processing Lab and video-taping lab, trips to the Batch Institute for Ethnic Studies in Center City, and to Eagleville Hospital for Personality Disorders (as the main course taught was introductory Psychology). The article finishes on a positive note, mentioning the contentedness of the students who participated and plans from the administration to expand funding for the following year.

"Circuits of Blood and Stone: On Enslaved Test Subject and the History of Gynecology"
Description
An account of the resource
In 2017, The African American and Africana Studies guest Lecture Series was renamed the Rev. Charles Rice Speaker Series. Dr. Nicole Ivy’s lecture, “Circuits of Blood and Stone: On Enslaved Test Subjects and the History of Gynecology” was the first speaker of the newly renamed series and was held in Berman 006 on October 6, 2017. During the event Dr. Ivy addressed the role of enslaved women in nineteenth-century slave clinics in Montgomery, Alabama. While the legacies of these women are often forgotten, history reveres Dr. James Marion Sims as the “father of modern Gynecology” as tested tools and techniques on nonconsenting patients. Dr. Ivy invites us to remember how the enslaved dead impact contemporary spaces of U.S. capital circulation. This event was hosted by the AAAS program in collaboration with Institute for Inclusion and Equity and the Anthropology/ Sociology department.

"Focus: Nate Dupree"
Subject
The topic of the resource
Student interest in having more Black studies courses added to Ursinus College.
Description
An account of the resource
“Focus: Nate Dupree Can a Black Man Find Happiness at Ursinus? Well…” is an interview written by Richard Whaley and published November 7, 1974 Ursinus Weekly. In the interview Dupree mentions that he would like to add a Black studies program and black administrators/professors to Ursinus college. While Dupree does not expect the school to implement such programs due to their cost, he believes the school might change if there is pressure from the government. The courses, or lack thereof, may even be the reason why students transfer out of the college. However, the lack of black students, and other minority students, is shocking to Dupree; who has moved from Philadelphia to Ursinus in pursuit of his political science degree. As the college seeks to diversify itself through other means (i.e. bringing in foreign students according to Dupree) the desire to have more inclusive curriculum can be traced as far back as the 1970s.

An account of the resource
“New Developments in Africana Studies” was the first event presented by the AAAS Program in collaboration with the Modern Languages Department. The flyer you see here was a preliminary flyer created by Dr. Keita’s son and was later renamed “Trends in Africana Studies” before the event took place. Dr. Babacar M’Baye, a professor of Pan-African Studies and English Department at Kent university, was also an Ursinus alum who remained close with retired French professor Dr. Novack. Mrs. Patton from Multicultural Services graciously allowed the event to be held in Unity House on November 29, 2012. Unity House has since been demolished to create space for the Ursinus Commons and is now known as the Institute for Inclusion and Equity in the lower lever of the Wismer Center.
