Title

Administrative Response to Resistance

Description

In this letter to an undergraduate student in 1974, Assistant Dean of the Faculty Gregory Prince advocated for understanding the Native American position on removing the unofficial symbol and mascot. The student, it may be assumed from Prince’s response, was not receptive to listening to the Native American students and was sympathetic to keeping it. The letter demonstrates that while many were sensitive to listening to the Native Americans in wanting to change the symbol, some students were not quick or willing to see the removal of the symbol.
