Flemming Discrimination Statement (Continued Irani pane 1) , Class of I960 on September 16, 1962, I made the following state ment: “When a few years ago the Hoard of Higher Education said it would not be possible for1 groups to continue functioning on our campus which carry a dis criminatory clause in their con stitutions, it was in effect saying that such clauses were in conflict with the concepts of the dignity and worth of each human being a concept that should be at the center of every community of scholars. “Some may say now that we are about to achieve the objective set forth by the Hoard of Higher Kducation, 'That is good enough.’ "The University rejects that point of view; we will never be satisfied until by their deeds our there is no discrimination based living groups demonstrate that HELLO FRESHMEN!!

The action taken by the Board of Higher Education was j designed to make sure that the local chapters of fraternities and sororities on the campus of the University have complete freedom to invite persons to become mem bers of their groups without re gard to race, color, nationality, or creed. It is clear that if, following the effective date of the Board’s ac tion, national organizations or groups of alumni utilize any other methods which result in restrict ing the freedom to select mem bers without regard to race, color, nationality or creed, they will be in conflict with the basic policy and action will be taken looking toward the withdrawal of recog nition. 5. I urge that, consistent with the concept of the dignity and worth of each human being, the living groups on the University campus consider persons for mem bership solely on their merits and without regard to their race, col or, nationality, or creed. Groups that act in this manner will have the complete support of the Uni versity if they are subjected to any pressure from the outside to follow a contrary policy.
