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.

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.

A report given to the board by the FDC expresses dissatisfaction with the current handling of diversity affairs on campus.

Title A name given to the resource Confrontation: Black vs. White Subject The topic of the resource Recruitment and retention of students of color at Ursinus College Description An account of the resource The article is a brief recounting of black students at Swarthmore College in their fight for acceptance. In their protest, they ask for programs of education and to promote the realization of the Black struggle. The Afro-American students Society of Swarthmore sets goals to increase openings for black youth, expose and realize the history of Swarthmore and its connection to racism, and to create educative programs regarding black people, their history and struggle, and to increase even black staff. This event, as Byron Jackson writes, connects directly to the Ursinus College Black Student Alliance, in their quest for approval or denial. The two groups share the goal of increased black participation, even by black women as well, in their educative process and furthermore talk on the existence of black students on campus, and how the organizations future will affect it.

Title A name given to the resource The Black Stereotype - A Dead Era Subject The topic of the resource Recruitment and retention of students of color at Ursinus College Description An account of the resource In this article of the Ursinus Weekly, Byron Jackson goes into small detail about the movement for student rights. The article attempts to bridge the gap between the acquisition of student rights, and the striving of black people towards their deserved place in society. Essentially, Byron Jackson tries to debunk the idea that black students fighting for their rights are all Black Nationalists. Simply put, the scenario described had involved Black Nationalists fighting for their rights under the guise of being students. However, Jackson attempts to falsify this claim, because as he states "each individual black person is his own person." In other words, Black Student Activism had been given a bad look as it related to black peoples movement in general towards equality, this stereotype reached black students, and Jackson here attempts to remove it. This would effect black students for generations, as they would be seen as parts of the Black Power movement, taking away from their fight for individual freedom.

Title A name given to the resource Tradition vs Change Subject The topic of the resource Recruitment and retention of students of color at Ursinus College Description An account of the resource In this newspaper article, the author writes about the initial treatment that black students being admitted to Ursinus were facing. In specific, he argues about the age of the student and the rights that they have earned and continue to earn. However, Jackson talks about how to more effectively recruit black students, whom recieve a large white shock when they come to an administration like Ursinus. Additionally, Jackson emphasizes that the institution not only "lure" black students into their institution, but that they also carve a path to a degree for prospective black students. He talks about the necessity of the student in general to not stagnate, and to continue to make themselves better off. He lastly mentions programs like Upward Bound that would help the culturally deprived and disadvantaged black students.

Title A name given to the resource Minority Student Concerns and Suggestions, 1988-1990 Subject The topic of the resource Recruitment and retention of students of color at Ursinus College Description An account of the resource Three typed pages listing "concerns of current minority students" followed by suggestions for the following year. While exact date of creation and author are unclear, the sources were found in Richard P. Richter's 1988-1990 Minorities files, giving us a general approximation. The concerns of these students at the time include noticing obvious socioeconomic differences between themselves and other students, struggling to succeed academically during their first semester, and feeling limited to “other (Black/Hispanic) students” for social purposes. Suggestions for the following year include working to increase minority representation in the student body, a follow up to the Bridge Program beyond a student’s first year, a statement of sensitivity from the President or a Dean to aid student adjustments and differences, a scholarship targeted towards students of color, and a specific student recruiter focused on students of color. This last suggestion coincides with similar suggestions from others for new full-time roles, which President Richter seemed resistant to in previous memos.

Title A name given to the resource Ursinus Joins the National Minority Faculty Identification Program 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 series of primary sources documenting the college's joining of The Chronicle of Higher Education's Minority Faculty Vita Bank, and related documents explaining and describing exactly what that means. The first document is a one-page letter from the Director of the National Minority Faculty Identification Program, Dr. William B. Jones, dated August 5th, 1987. The letter is to then-president Richard P. Richter inviting Ursinus College to join the program and explaining the program’s function. The program is a “computerized minority faculty databank for member institutions,” offering lists of candidates and access to resumes. Dr. Jones also mentions that participating institutions will be listed in an advertisement in The Chronicle of Higher Education so long as they join by a certain date. The following document is a handwritten note from August 10th, addressed to President Richter (“RPR”) explaining that Ursinus has decided to join, and referring to “attached” for more information. The “attached” consists of the next three pages - one pulled from the January 7, 1987 Chronicle list of Minority Faculty Vita Bank, and the next two listing information about the program (number of participants, demographics, statistics on the types of degrees, etc.).
