Title
A name given to the resource
Flamer Proposal and Analysis, Minority Recruitment and Retention, 1989
Subject
The topic of the resource
Recruitment and retention of students of color at Ursinus College
Description
An account of the resource
This is a compilation of primary sources all related to Jenneen Flamer's 1989 proposals for minority recruitment and retention. Jenneen Flamer was the Admission Counselor and Minority Student Adviser at Ursinus College in 1989. The first page is a memo from Ms. Flamer to President Richard P. Richter explaining the importance of programs which foster self-identity to make minority students more comfortable on campus. The following four pages are her extended proposal of changes to implement on campus - namely for there to be four new positions to help with minority recruitment and retention. The next page is Richard Richter's analysis of Flamer's proposal, in which he supports increasing attention towards the tasks Flamer has outlined but not the addition of specific titles or new full time positions. He asks in handwritten pen at the top of his analysis for a colleague's input. This input makes up the last page. While the author of this last analysis is unknown, he or she mainly agrees with Richter's thoughts.

This "Ursinus Seeks Diversity" brochure, distributed in 1989, contains a collection of lists and information which are specifically marketed towards students from diverse backgrounds (as stated on the second page: "For Students From Diverse Backgrounds: A Book of Lists"). The lists contain information on the school's fields of study, activities, student demographics, scholarships, and financial aid, among others. It also lists the names of the two Minority Student Advisers at the time: Ms. Jenneen A. Flamer and Mr. Anthony D.J. Brankar.

Title

Minutes of Minority Affairs Committee Meeting, March 23, 1989
Subject
The topic of the resource
Recruitment and retention of students of color at Ursinus College
Description
An account of the resource
A one-page typed document recounting the events of the Minority Affairs Committee's March 23, 1989 meeting. The meeting begins with a statement about the goals of the committee (to discuss matters relating to students of color at Ursinus and promote in the community "the fact that Ursinus is committed to ethnic and cultural diversity"). The specific topics covered that day included the "Ursinus Seeks Diversity" brochure, an emphasis on admissions and recruitment, means of identifying and accessing students of color in order to recruit, and the need for a revised admission statement which would include increasing the proportion of students of color as a part of the community and college-wide agenda. There is mention of the need for education campus-wide on minority issues, but not much is mentioned in the way of direct plans or deliverables.

Title
A name given to the resource
"Strategic Approaches to Multiculturalism in Higher Education"
Subject
The topic of the resource
Recruitment and retention of students of color at Ursinus College
Description
An account of the resource
A one-page typed document encouraging the school to adapt new strategies for minorities to be able to obtain a higher education. The document begins with exhibiting the effects of having a diverse strategic approach influenced by a conference at Villanova University attended by the contributors of this document. The document brings up the suggestion of having a three-credit course that deals with racism. There should also be a new faculty member to take the role of a Minority Adviser to head up this new approach to a more diverse campus. This is an important position because it will not only help with working exclusively with students of color but also as a push for student programs to mature and evolve in a respecting and appreciating the merit of diversity on campus.

Ursinus College Minority Student Union Constitution
Subject
The topic of the resource
Recruitment and retention of students of color at Ursinus College
Description
An account of the resource
These two typed pages are the constitution drawn up for the Minority Students Union. Although it is undated it was pulled from the Ursinusiana archives from a folder labeled 1987/1988 so can be tentatively dated to that general timeline. The constitution includes description of the organization's purpose - to foster a sense of awareness and serve as a support system and unifying body, as well as information about officer roles and duties, voting, and meeting plans. Another specific function of the organization and officers is to promote cultural programming on campus. The organization is open to any member of the college community.
