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

REMEMBER
WHEN YOU
STARTED
WRITING..?
It wasn't too long ago when you were first intro*
duced to the ABC's ... Now that you can write,
make sure that you are equipped with all of the
school supplies which are essential for writing
and art work. Come in and see our complete, fine
assortment, everything from
A (abridged dictionaries, address and appoint*
ment books, air mail stationery, anatomy,
■ architecture, and astronomy charts!)
TO
Z (zinc oxide paints, zipper binders, and zone
i maps!)
INCLUDING
all kinds of composition books, ruled and unruled
tablets and pads, filler and graph paper, scrap
books, steno books, index cards, ring binders, pens
and pencils, and hundreds of other economical,
useful items to help you start the school year.

on race, color, nationality or
creed.
“Unless they do demonstrate
it, they are standing in the way
of this University’s achieving its
highest potential.
I know that there arc many of
our students who support whole
heartedly this concept and I want
them to know that they can count
on any support it is possible for 1
me to give them.
4. 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.
