HISTORY OF UNITED NEGRO COLLEGE FUND TO GO ON RECORD The United Negro Col lege Fund is embarking on a significant historical project that is expected to enrich the recorded history of black higher education in America and to offer a new dimension to the annals of black history. The UNCF Oral History Project will tape record the reminiscenses pf several UNCF founders, black, college presidents, volunteers and staff. The project will be conducted by the UNCF Archives in conjunction with Columbia Universi ty's Oral History Research Office. A $25,250 grant from the National Endow ment for the Humanities made the project possible. "We have a great in terest in the Oral History Project. It will give us an important opportunity to document our impact on black higher education and at the same time ex pand knowledge and understanding about black cultural and educa tional accomplishments," said Christopher F. Edley, executive director of the UNCF. The UNCF Oral History Project will offer notable commentary from Dr. Frederick D. Patter son, founder of the UNCF, and Walter Hov ing, chairman of the board of Tiffany & Co., who, in 1944 as president of Lord & Taylor, made an appeal on NBC Radio for the UNCF's premier fund-raising campaign with John D. Rockefeller, Jr. The United Negro Col lege Fund was the first organization to which Rockefeller lent his name for the solicitation of charitable contributions. "When Dr. Patterson called together 27 black college presidents to form the UNCF 36 years ago, it would have been hard to foresee the broad-based leadership support the organization would receive over the years," said Edley. The 16-24 educators and leaders who will be in terviewed will include former black college presidents Dr. Benjamin E. Mays of Morehouse College in Atlanta; Dr. Albert Dent of Dillard University in Louisiana; Dr. Hollis F. Price of LeMoyne-Owen College in Tennessee; and Dr. Harry ,V. Richardson of the Interdenominational Theological Center in Atlanta. Ms. Betty Steb man, the first UNCF employee, will also be in terviewed. "I am excited about this project because I have met and worked with many of the people to be interview ed. They are fascinating people whose contribu tions to the United Negro College Fund and American society should have been documented long ago," said Gregory Hunter, UNCF Archivist and director of the Oral History Project. "There are so many others who merit interview, that I Protecting Our Environment If the day ever comes that we travel around town on a trackless train, it could be because of the success of a pioneering tramline in a gar den. At the Missouri Botanical Garden in St Louis, trams powered by lead-acid batter ies give visitors a quiet, fumeless ride that can en hance their enjoyment of the beautiful setting. 1&J s I J Trams run on lead- hope this project will be just the beginning. I hope that we can secure addi tional funding for future interviewing of more members of the UNCF family." The intensive yearlong project, which will generate over 100 hours of taped interviews, will be conducted in conjunction with Columbia Universi ty's Oral History Research in j the oral hj&tory discipline. Columbia researchers will conduct the actual interviews, transcribe and process the more than 3,000 transcript pages in the project. Upon completion, the UNCF Oral History Col lection will be stored in Columbia University's specialized facilities and copies of open interviews will be maintained at the UNCF Archives for future use.
