Brown University Professor- Hopeful Signs in Mississippi
Brown University English professor James Barnhill reports a Christmas outreach in Mississippi to recruit bright high school students for Brown. He met top seniors and juniors in five schools, noted improving faculty and all-white Murrah High’s college placement, and observed growing open discussion of race and integration despite hostile press. Barnhill plans return next Christmas to continue the outreach and recruitment effort.
