  • The Benching of Willis Ward and the Rise of Northern Racial Liberalism
    At the University but Not of the University 35 At the University but Not of the University: The Benching of Willis Ward and the Rise of Northern Racial Liberalism Tyran Kai Steward No Northern state university prohibits the enrollment of Ne- groes, although a few practice minor forms of discrimination once they are enrolled. This is often a matter of individual prejudice rather than of official policy.1 The racial prejudice encountered by the University of Michigan’s black lettermen during the first half of the twentieth century was entwined into the na- tion’s fabric: restaurants and hotels refused service to African Americans, land- lords denied housing to black renters, and employers rebuffed black job seekers when it came to postgraduation professional opportunities. “They [black Amer- icans] were IN America but not OF it,” remarked one writer recalling the racial exclusion that marked the era. Similarly, Dan Kean, a former tennis player at Michigan, reached the same conclusion about his and other African Americans’ sense of social isolation in Ann Arbor that had been drawn about the racial restrictions placed on black life in America. “If you want to know what it is was like then I’d have to say black students were AT the University but not OF it.”2 Kean’s observation exposed the racial marginalization that black stu- dents confronted at the University of Michigan. Although African Americans began enrolling at the University of Michigan in the early 1850s, reflecting the early move toward integration in some areas of the North, discriminatory racial practices prevailed.

    THE HEISMAN TROPHY CONQU’RING HEROES The John W. Heisman Trophy has been given to college football’s outstanding player each season since 1935 by the Downtown Athletic Club of New York. The trophy, first known as the D.A.C. trophy was renamed in 1936 for Heisman, the first athletic director for the Down town Athletic Club. Heisman played football at Penn and Brown and coached for 36 years at nine different schools. Three Michigan players -- TOM HARMON (1940), DESMOND HOWARD (1991) and CHARLES WOODSON (1997) -- have won the award. Wolverines have placed in the top 11 of the Heisman voting in 24 of the 79 years the trophy has been presented. Two Wolverines (Harmon in 1939, Bob Chappuis in 1947) have finished second in the voting, while three (Rob Lytle in 1976, Rick Leach in 1978, Jim Harbaugh in 1986) have finished third. Three others (Bob Timberlake in 1964, Anthony Carter in 1982, Chris Perry in 2003) have placed fourth. Carter placed among the top 10 in his soph- omore, junior and senior seasons, while Harmon, Ron Kramer (1955, ‘56) and Leach (1977, ‘78) placed in the top 10 twice in their U-M careers.
