Reverend Jesse Jackson, Executive Director of Operation PUSH, was the keynote speaker at Morehouse College's 112th Founder's Day Con¬ vocation held in the Martin Luther King, Jr., Memorial Chapel on the College campus, February 1 5,1979. Reverend Jackson in his own in¬ imitable style told the Morehouse convocation audience that "Black colleges and universities must retain their independent role of producing skilled professionals and leaders, despite critics carping that black colleges are no longer necessary." Jackson, referring to students' pre-college days, stated, "Parents must do four specific things: meet their child's teacher and exchange home numbers, monitor the child's (L-R) Malcolm Corrin, President are study hours at least two hours per Gloster, Jesse Jackson shown after Mr. Corrin and Reverend Jackson received night without radio and television, honorary doctorates. pick up their child's report cards four times per year, and inquire into the child's grades." On the federal scene, Reverend Jackson pointed out, "There is a budgetary de-emphasis on educa¬ tion. It's a bad sign when our military budget is on the rise during peace times and our educational budget is on the decline in terms of real dollars. "President Carter has raised the military budget three per cent above the inflation rate, and though he talks of peace, he is smoking a peace pipe that has gunpowder in it. We must tell the nation that schools are costly. Education and employ¬ ment are less costly than ignorance and incarceration. We must argue this case over and over." Jesse Jackson delivers keynote address at Morehouse's 112th Founder's Day Convocation. Reverend Jackson added, "Ed¬ ucators must not only be knowl¬ edgeable; must be "Of more they trustworthy than 1,700 daily news¬ disappoint you." and believable and caring.

Malcolm Corrin Delivers Morehouse’s Founder’s Day Banquet Address

Malcolm Corrin, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Interracial Council for Business Opportunity and a 1950 graduate of Morehouse, delivered the keynote address at the College's 112th Founder's Day Ban¬ quet, held on Friday, February 17, 1979. Having received the Honorary Doctor of Humane Letters from Morehouse the day before, Dr. Cor¬ rin stated that he “takes the honorary degree most seriously." He thanked the members of the More¬ house family for bestowing this de¬ gree upon him. Dr. Corrin addressed himself to the black family, the black college, and economics during his speech be¬ fore a packed house in the Walter R. Chivers Dining Hall on the More¬ house campus. He stated, “Young people today have an obligation to keep the black family together. I am quite concerned about where the young black people today are go¬ ing." Turning his remarks to the black Dr. Mays speaks extemporaneously to the Founder's Day Banquet audience. colleges, Dr. Corrin declared, “I am what Morehouse made me. If Har¬ vard had given me a full scholarship, I would have turned it down and paid my own way to Morehouse." He added, "You can overcome all kinds of obstacles if you have it in¬ side. "Morehouse gave this needed something to me through the facul¬ ty, staff, student body, friends and others in the College family. There is a need to continue to perpetuate the black colleges in the United States." Dr. Corrin stated that there is a "need to reassess the economic im¬ pact of integration on blacks. Since politics and economics have always been interwoven, blacks should ex¬ ercise leverage whenever possible through their economic and polit¬ ical clout." Following Dr. Corrin's remarks, Morehouse President Dr. Hugh M. Gloster gave a brief overview of the status of Morehouse at the present time. He praised the alumni for their continued support of Morehouse and stated, "Morehouse alumni give Malcolm Corrin delivers Founder's Day Banquet address. more by percentage than alumni of

Dr. Gloster praised the late Presi¬ dent Lyndon B. Johnson for his role in assisting black colleges from an economic standpoint. Dr. Gloster pointed out that "President Carter now has sent a directive dated Jan¬ uary 19, 1979, to all department heads asking that more assistance be provided to colleges."

Senator Edward Kennedy

U S. Sen. Edward Kennedy told members of the charter class of the new School of Medicine at More¬ house College that the nation needs more “young, talented, committed and passionate" health-care profes¬ sionals to work in rural and inner- city areas. Kennedy toured the new medical school recently. The school opened last September and is attempting to produce physicians who will serve as primary-care physicians in geo¬ graphic areas that have a shortage of doctors. Kennedy said in a brief address: "Clearly, one of the most important aspects of our health-care system in the United States is the quality of our medical professionals. "I think medical education is undergoing a good deal of rethink¬ ing over the period of these last few years. It has become more apparent that we need to have a young, tal¬ ented, committed, passionate heal¬ ing professional who will serve in the inner city and also rural com¬ munities, and also respond to over¬ whelming needs that we face in terms of primary care."
