Diversity Without Integration Kevin Woodson* Abstract The de facto racial segregation pervasive at colleges and universities across the country undermines a necessary precondition for the diversity benefits embraced by the Court in Grutter-therequirement that students partake in high-quality interracial interactions and social relationships with one another. This disjuncture between Grutter's vision of universities as sites of robust cross-racial exchange and the reality of racial separation should be of great concern, not just because of its potential constitutional implications for affirmative action but also because it reifies racial hierarchy and reinforces inequality. Drawing from an extensive body of social science research, this article explains that the failure of schools to achieve greater racial integration in campus life perpetuates harmful racial biases and exacerbates racial disparities in social capital, to the disadvantage of black Americans. After providing an overview of de facto racial segregation at America's colleges and making clear its considerable long-term costs, this article calls for universities to modify certain institutional policies, practices, and arrangements that facilitate and sustain racial separation on campus. -
Crocker, Gary
The Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Affairs Oral History Project GARY B. CROCKER Interviewed by: Charles Stuart Kennedy Initial interview date: March 27, 2012 Copyright 2015 ADST Q: Today is the 27th of March, 2012, with Gary B. Crocker and this is being done on behalf of the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training and I’m Charles Stuart Kennedy. And Gary, let’s start at the beginning: when and where were you born? CROCKER: I was born in Spokane, Washington, and lived there and in nearby Kellogg, Idaho, until third grade. Q: When were you born? CROCKER: 1940. Q: Nineteen-forty. Let’s talk about the Crockers- on your father’s side first; what’s the background there? CROCKER: My father's grandfather came from Minnesota to Seattle in a covered wagon after he fought in the Civil war. Seattle was founded in 1850, so he was there as a pioneer. His son was born in Seattle as was my dad. Dad's mother came in a covered wagon as a young girl and played an interesting role in the development of Seattle. Q: What were the Crockers in Minnesota? Farmers? CROCKER: Great Grandfather Crocker was a farmer and Indian agent in Minnesota. Q: Lumber by any chance? CROCKER: Grandmother Crocker's father came out and logged off the University of Washington and he was in lumber and logging in Minnesota, He was a Rogers. And so Grandma came out and they link with the Dennys, which are the people who founded Seattle from the sea. So we have a very long history in that town. -

Leonard, Ph.D., Chair _________________________________ Lisa Guerrero, Ph.D. _________________________________ Thabiti Lewis, Ph.D. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENT As I think about this dissertation and all the people who played some part in its creation, it is hard to know who to thank first. Yet, perhaps it would be fitting to begin with my dissertation chair, David J. Leonard, whose outstanding mentorship and support has been instrumental to this project. In addition, I was also honored to have Lisa Guerrero and Thabiti Lewis serve on my committee, therefore their service has also been appreciated. Several other Washington State University faculty and staff have made major contributions to my growth and development in the American Studies Ph.D. program including C. Richard King, chair of the Critical Culture Gender and Race Studies (CCGRS) Department, Rory Ong, director of the American Studies Program, and Rose Smetana, Program Coordinator for CCGRS. Moreover, all the faculty and staff of Comparative Ethnic Studies, Women Studies, and other departments/programs who worked with me deserve special acknowledgement for providing invaluable knowledge and guidance. -

Interviews Referencing Calvin F. Schmid PAA President in 1965-66
DEMOGRAPHIC DESTINIES Interviews with Presidents of the Population Association of America Interviews Referencing Calvin F. Schmid PAA President in 1965-66 This series of interviews with Past PAA Presidents was initiated by Anders Lunde (PAA Historian, 1973 to 1982) And continued by Jean van der Tak (PAA Historian, 1982 to 1994) And then by John R. Weeks (PAA Historian, 1994 to present) With the collaboration of the following members of the PAA History Committee: David Heer (2004 to 2007), Paul Demeny (2004 to 2012), Dennis Hodgson (2004 to present), Deborah McFarlane (2004 to 2018), Karen Hardee (2010 to present), Emily Merchant (2016 to present), and Win Brown (2018 to present) CALVIN F. SCHMID We do not have an interview with Calvin Schmid, who was the 29th PAA President (1965-66). However, as the PAA Historians were interviewing other past presidents, information was sometimes gleaned about the presidents whom they had been unable to interview. Below are the excerpted comments about Calvin Schmid. Since in Dr. Schmid's case we have very few such excerpts, these are followed by information that came from other sources. CAREER HIGHLIGHTS Calvin Fisher Schmid was born in Ohio in 1901. He received his B.A. (Phi Beta Kappa) from the University of Washington in 1925 and his Ph.D. in Sociology from the University of Pittsburgh in 1930, where he also taught from 1928 to 1931. He went to the University of Minnesota as an Assistant Professor of Sociology from 1931 to 1937, and published several important monographs about Minneapolis during his time there. In 1937 he moved to the Sociology Department at the University of Washington as an Associate Professor, and was Professor from 1940 to his retirement in 1972. -
