NEGRO HISTORY WEEK COMMITTEE
The Committee at a meeting on Friday, January 15, drew up the following recommendations:
That we make a study inside the College of the notable contributions of the Negro.
BMC COMMUNITY BULLETIN, Monday, January 28th, page 2
b) That these studies be culminated in the following meetings:
A talk on negro literature by Kenneth Kurtz
A talk on the influence of the Negro on American Culture Patters by Herbert Miller.
A reading of a play on Negro life by Bob Wunsch.
An exhibit of Negro art objects discussed by Josef Albers.
c) That we have also, if we can get them:
A talk by an outstanding Negro speaker and a discussion following this talk. It was suggested that Mr WA Robinson be invited to come to visit us again.
A showing of the Harmen Foundation Film on Hampton Institute.
A concert by a Negro group, the leader of whom might explain the distinct contribution of the Negro to modern music.
That to avoid our seeming to overdo Negro Week, we should stretch out our study during the whole Winter Quarter instead of confining it to a seven-day period.
Committees that have not yet met are urged to do so to plan their work for the Winter Quarter.
From the Business Office
Beginning today, owners of pets will buy food for them, not get food from the Dining Hall. Bones left over will be distributed in the kitchen to petowners, however.
