Dear Grim:
Thank you for your letter pertaining to the recent developments with the
black students on campus. I have been hearing about this and, of course,
reading about it in the local newspapers.
It is not my purpose to tell you how to handle the situation, and not to
"second guess" you in any way, but rather, this letter is to give you the
benefit of my reaction to the contents of your letter.
I don't know who will be ^supervising the use of the "two unneeded rooms".
A
\
where the black students meet. I feel that this kind of a meeting place
should be supervised by someone. There is a good chance that this kind
of a "headquarters" may develop into something that you do not want on
campus. I am not thinking so much about the students there as those from
outside who will be visiting them in their "headquarters. " Please don't
allow this to go unsupervised
y
Your statement pertaining to allowing members of this organization to use
college automobiles bothers me considerably. It would seem to me that
college automobiles should be used only by college sponsored organizations
and not organizations that the students put together themselves for whatever
purpose or to accommodate whatever group. If the college is not following
such a practice, I would recommend that the college practice be reviewed
in this regard.
When I read the paragraphs about the requests for a minimum grade of "C",
I thought in the beginning that this had been handled properly. I must admit,
however, that the closing sentences of your paragraph which refer to "our
j granting limited academic credit for special educational internships with
I individuals and agencies in the Greensboro area" creates some question as
j to what is really going on in the academic credit and grading areas.
