Hartvigsen, dean of BYU's college of physical education. Calling the move "a natural follow-through to the circumstances of the times," Hartvigsen stressed, as have other BYU officials, that Negroes have always been welcome at the school, and the recruiting drive is an effort to make that policy more well known. Few Blacks i n Area Hartvigsen said that BYU officials had not in the past extensively attempted to recruit Negroes because they had in dicated an unwillingness to at tend. He "added that the of ficials had been careful to inform Negroes of the limited social prospects because of the scarcity of blacks in and around Provo. The new recruiting drive is to determine if there has been a "change of heart" in the black community about attending BYU, Hartvigsen stated. He added that the increasing number of demon strations against the school might indicate a new "desire" among blacks to attend.
