Commencement 2019 w 9 Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters Ms. Jane Elliott

Ms. Jane Elliott has been a champion of social justice for nearly 50 years, with her advocacy for racial equality a never-ending pursuit. Ms. Jane Elliott is widely known in academic circles as the creator of the Blue-Brown discrimination- reducing exercise, developed in response to the assassination of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to explain the concept of racism. Her work showing how phenotype differences such as eye color are given social value has demonstrated to a general audience how irrational prejudice can be. Ms. Jane Elliott’s diversity training and advocacy has come at a great personal and professional price. As a result of her early work in her hometown of Riceville, Iowa, many of her neighbors, and even some family members, ostracized her for her work and intentions of improving race relations. While critics exist to this day, Ms. Jane Elliott moves ahead undeterred at age 85. She has been the subject of eight documentaries, continues to conduct race-relations workshops throughout the country, conducts many interviews, all with the goal of creating a just society for all citizens. Her videos continue to influence college students taking courses in psychology, sociology, child development, criminal justice and many other disciplines. While it is not necessary to walk in one another’s shoes, these videos have served the purpose she envisioned in 1968: “People are vicarious learners and can be influenced to know right from wrong.” In 1952, after graduating from high school, Elliott attended the Iowa State Teachers College (now the University of Northern Iowa), where she attained an emergency elementary teaching certificate. In 1953, she began her teaching career in a one-room school in Randall, Iowa. In recognition of the extraordinary impact of her achievements as an activist and advocate for social justice, which have created lasting change in the lives of millions across the country, the Board of Trustees of the California State University and California State University, Bakersfield are proud to confer upon Jane Elliott the honorary degree of Doctor of Humane Letters.
