  • 2015 ANNUAL REPORT “ Oliver Scholars Are Careful Writers, Sharp Thinkers, Creative Artists, Passionate Athletes, Eloquent
    2015 ANNUAL REPORT “ Oliver Scholars are careful writers, sharp thinkers, creative artists, passionate athletes, eloquent speakers, and interdisciplinary investigators. They have capacious hearts and expansive minds, informed by a deep commitment to bringing about progressive change in communities that matter to them.” ~ Jason Harris, Director of Diversity - Friends Seminary Our Mission The Oliver Scholars Program prepares high achieving African-American and Latino students for success at top independent high schools and prestigious colleges. We provide crucial support for our Scholars so they can realize their full potential and ultimately give back to the city, the nation, and the world. Dear Friends of Oliver, Events of the past year have caused many of us to reflect upon the need for social transformation and increased opportunity. Through startling news reports and online images, we have come face to face with the persistence of racial injustice. From Ferguson to Flint, it has become plain that our society is neither color-blind nor class-blind, and that more needs to be done to make the promise of the American Dream real for all. At Oliver, we have doubled down on our determination to provide equity and access for students. In 2015, we greatly expanded and enhanced our programming: • We expanded our Fall-Term and Spring-Term classes to give our students the academic edge they need to excel in 9th grade. • We co-sponsored, with the National Partnership for Educational Access, a symposium on educational reform, “Charter Schools and Independent Schools: An Opportunity for Dialogue?” at the offices of PricewaterhouseCoopers in Midtown. • We introduced a Social Justice Summer Institute, with full scholarships for Oliver students.

    ANNUAL REPORT 2014 Our Mission The Oliver Scholars Program prepares extraordinary African- American and Latino students for success at top independent high schools and prestigious colleges. We provide crucial support for our Scholars so that they can realize their full potential and ultimately give back to the city, the nation, and the world. Dear Friends of Oliver, As you will see in the following pages, 2014 was a banner year for The Oliver Scholars Program. One hundred percent of our seniors graduated from independent school and matriculated into college. Thirty-two percent went off to Ivy league institutions. In April, our 30th Anniversary Gala was our most successful event ever. Generously sponsored by Dior, it was an elegant and inspiring evening that raised nearly $400,000 for Oliver. The past six months have been an especially busy and productive time: • We launched our new TuesdayTalks@Oliver series, bringing leaders in fields such as finance, technology and the arts to speak to our students about career opportunities after college. • We launched a new partnership with Toyota to provide better math and science preparation for our students, with classes beginning spring 2015. • We professionalized our Placement Office and increased the size of our Scholar Services team. • We rolled out an online application system and inaugurated a new student database. • Our Pre-Scholars saw a 67% increase in their SSAT scores from August to November. • We introduced a new Monday Morning Professional Development program for the staff, with presentations

I would like to first thank the reference librarians at the Schlesinger Library at the Radcliffe Institute at Harvard for their patience, congeniality and endless help. They made my first foray into archival research an absolute pleasure. I would especially like to thank Linda Leahy who graciously went above and beyond to accommodate my tight research schedule. I owe much of my intellectual growth at Columbia to Professor Alice Kessler- Harris. Professor Kessler-Harris has challenged my definitions of feminism, activism, politics and good writing. Her criticism, gentle prodding, and encouragement on this, and previous, papers, have taught me what it means to be a true mentor. I owe Professor Samuel Roberts tremendous thanks for the faith he put in this project and for his constant support, generosity of time and wise insight. I learned from Professor Roberts the crucial lesson that it is “the work on the table,” that matters.

  • Fourth Edition, Print & Digital, Published by the Institute for Media Education, 2012
    The Red Queen & The Grand Scheme In 1948, the Institute for Sex Research at Indiana University was led by eugenicist Alfred C. Kinsey, whose sex research shook America’s moral foundations and launched the 1960s Sexual Revolution. Fifty years later new revelations confirm Dr. Judith Reisman’s 1981 expose of scientific fraud and criminally derived data contained in the publicly funded Kinsey Reports. Dr. Reisman revealed that Kinsey conducted human experiments in a soundproof laboratory built to his specifications at Indiana University, and that the sexual abuse of at least 317 infants and young boys was a scientific protocol for Kinsey’s 1948 report. Dr. Reisman discloses for the first time the ongoing consequences to the American people and the world based on Kinsey’s deliberately skewed research. Kinsey died in 1956 but his Institute endures today under the expanded title of “The Kinsey Institute for Research FOURTH in Sex, Gender and EDITION Reproduction,” suggesting an even more ominous threat to human rights and liberty. By Judith A. Reisman, PhD. PRAISE FOR DR. REISMAN’S SCHOLARSHIP The sexual revolution was based on a lie. Dr. Judith Reisman has spent 30 years uncovering the truth. National Review Dr. Reisman has produced a scholarly and devastating study revealing the ugly and frighteningly dangerous pseudo-scientific assault on our children’s innocence. "Dr. Laura" Schlessinger When I first came across Judith Reisman’s work, my view of Alfred Kinsey was unquestioningly benign. Dr. Reisman’s allegations—that Kinsey had collaborated with paedophiles to obtain so- called ‘scientific data’ on children’s reactions to sexual activity with adults—were so serious that they clearly warranted much deeper examination than they had received.

  • 2016 ANNUAL REPORT Dear Friends of Oliver
    2016 ANNUAL REPORT Dear Friends of Oliver, What a difference a year makes! Thanks to the enormous support of our donors, 2016 was a pivotal year of growth for Oliver Scholars. We both expanded our capacity to serve students and increased the programs we offer to change the ratio of access and opportunity for African-American and Latino students from low-income communities. We were very excited to launch a new program that prepares 4th and 5th graders to enter independent middle schools. This year we laid the groundwork for academically gifted younger scholars to receive the same style of rigorous pre-placement preparation and support that their older counterparts have had for the past 33 years. This is a tremen- dous opportunity to intervene at an earlier age and shift the trajectory toward academic achievement sharply upward. The first cohort will be admitted in spring 2017. We also augmented our ongoing programs with: • New pre-placement services on biotechnology and leadership • More robust post-placement support through tutoring, counseling support, and workshops on test anxiety and financial literacy, among other topics • Greater concentration on college and career with more college tours, SAT/ACT prep and on-campus visits to students once they have matriculated Much of the success in 2016 was made possible by our donors. We were fortunate to receive an especially generous grant of $30 million over 3 years from an anonymous donor that allowed us to be bold and ambitious with program expansion, with a corresponding growth of staff to 25. Likewise, we were grateful for the many opportunities to embrace Oliver’s extended community of donors, alumni, supporters, and friends, and to give thanks for your continued belief in our work.

  • High Achievers Breakout Group Directory of Programs and Scholarships
    High Achievers Breakout Group Directory of Programs and Scholarships July 13, 2007 Chelsea Piers DRAFT Executive Summary This directory of programs and scholarships for high achievers has been compiled as a result of The Pipeline Crisis/Winning Strategies initiative which “seeks to pool the talents, knowledge and resources of the legal, financial, business and human services communities to help reverse the rising rates of school drop-outs, joblessness and incarceration among young black men, and to increase their representation in the pipeline to higher education.” The institutions and programs listed in this directory seek to help young black men of modest resources achieve better access to educational and cultural opportunities. Many of these organizations help other groups of people as well. The list provides information about contacting, donating, and volunteering time or other resources for each of the listed causes. The directory groups the listed institutions and programs by region as defined in the table of contents below. The “Program Description” column briefly describes the mission of each organization; the “To Contribute” column provides information about how to make a financial contribution; and the “Getting Involved” column provides guidance on ways in which firms or individuals can help meet the non-monetary needs of the respective institution or program. The Pipeline Crisis/Winning Strategies initiative is an ongoing effort, and we welcome your participation and support. Your generosity in sharing resources can have a substantial, positive impact on young black men through the substantive work of the institutions and programs contained in this directory. We encourage you to become a part of the solution.
