Tentatively, the subjects falling in this Thus, any step taken now category are Art History, Economics, English, History, Music, Political Science, and Sociology-Anthropology, but others might be added at a later date. Recommendation I. Students majoring in subjects of Which Black Studies are a part will be permitted to concentrate in the latter area as an aspect of the work in their major under conditions approved by the departments involved. Specific Elements Since the approach to Black Studies will differ among departments, it will not be possible to spell out in detail the requirements for the different concentrations in this area at this time. If' general approval for the differ- ent concentrations in this area is given to the Committee proposal, individual departments will be invited to establish such requirements as they deem appropriate . Cert ain overall provisions, however, call for general faculty action. �- 3 One such question i s ""hether the minimum requirement for a concent ration in Black Studies should be set as 10", as two or t hree coure,es or as high as six or seven . If 1-:2 limit the question of minimtnn requirements to courses that will be primarily concerned with Black Studi es alone, i t seems unlikely that students could take more than six courses in this area in addition to the ""~rk in their major. On the other hand, anything below four courses ""Quld It therefore seems appropri ~­ hardly be enough to qualify as a concentration. ate, at least for the immediate future, to set the minimum at approximately five courses. Another question is whether the work in Black Studies should be limited to the standard course form or ",hether consi derable diversity should be allowed. Two quite different considerations need to be kept in mind in this connection : 1. In a relatively new area of this s ')rt a certain amount of flexibility 1 !,ill need to be exercised just to get the program off the ground. 2. If the approaches taken by individual departments are not carefully planned and closely moni tored, the '~rk in this area wi ll prove of little lasting significance. The CorrillUttee therefore feels that experimentation with thesis projects, special reading courses, off-campus work-study arrangements and the like should be permitted in this area only "T here there is assurance the "Jork ""rill meet customary standards of the departments involvedo Still another question is whether there should be one or two basic courses which would be required of all students concentrating in Black Studies. Eventually, this might be des irable but it is too early to say whether, for example, a particular course in history or sociology would fill this need. the other hand, since introductory course 'work in a number of departments is or can be limited to one s emester, basi ~ On courses in Black Studies could be rr.ade available to students in t hese dC':partments in the follo"Jing semester of �- 4 - the same year.

St aff Recruitment If students at Swarthmore are to gain a full and balanced under standregul<~ ing of the Black Studies area, it is important that they have access to authorities and observers with black as ~~ll as white perspectives. Since both our students and faculty are predominantly "i'J nite, the Committee believes that black teachers ~Qth black perspective should be given top priority in the staffing of personnel for the Black Studie s program. The problem is that many other ins titutions are planning or have already taken similar steps and the number of qualified black scholars does not even approach the extent of the demand. Swarthmore aggressively compete for these Some argue that if institutions like teachers~ the Negro colleges and other less well endowed schools will be seriously undercut, the net gain of all our efforts comL~ to less than zero. ~~uld The view of the Committee is that a black scholar who decides he be most effective at S"Iarthmore should be permitted to make this choice himself~ and that~ in the long run at least., it ~!()uld be c.dvantageous for all conAt the cerned if the options open to such scholars were many I'ather than few. same time, the scarcity of supply obviously poses a formidable problem and we �- 5 will have to resort to a variety of arrangements in order to attract qualified personnel. pointments Some of the possibilities are pa.rt-time appointments, joint ap~Qth Haverford and Bryn ¥ ~~T, exchange professorships with Lincoln and Cheyney State, and visiting scholars from such institutions as Howard and the New Sdlool for Afro-American Thought in Fashington, Do C.
