Representatives of the Black Student Union (BSU) will continue to press for fulfillment of their demands for a "university which is to be relevant to black people" when they meet with Chancellor E. Laurence Chalmers Jr. and campus administrators this afternoon.
The BSU is seeking a "commitment" from Chalmers toward the implementation of demands designed to increase the voice of the black community in University affairs.
"We want a commitment and he [Chalmers] can give us one," said Darryl Bright, Maywood, Ill. senior and president of the BSU. "It just seems that he is running us around in circles with no definite commitment."
The list of demands presented to the Chancellor Oct. 31 called for, among other things, the creation and funding of the positions of dean of black students and dean of black student affairs, establishment of an Afro-American Institute of Research and Community Development and
construction of Malcolm X Hall to house the Institute.
In reply to the demands Chalmers stated he could not legally accept proposals that "would create a separate hierarchical organization for black students within the University."
Recently the BSU had changed its demands to include associate deans of men and women, associate directors of admissions and financial aids and a black provost for the University.
In a Dec. 15 letter addressed to the BSU, Chalmers acknowledged the needs of black students and the responsibility of the University in meeting them.
"I am prepared to speed up this process by the addition of personnel in various offices . . . and by the association of these and other appropriate people as a group," the letter stated.
In the letter Chalmers also assured the BSU the right to make its concern and its views effectively heard at all times.
Bright called the letter "grossly unsatisfactory." He said the positions must be filled by September
and that he had hoped the BSU could start interviewing personnel to fill these positions by February.
Concerning the demand for Malcolm X Hall Challers said there is a tremendous need for space during the next 10 years. In the letter, he stated that all available space had been assigned to some University function.
He said the building could provide space for tutoring programs for black students, Afro-arts week forums and displays, facilities for upcoming conferences for BSU chapters in Kansas and the BSU meetings.
The BSU contends New Haworth Hall would "provide temporary space for our purpose." Bright said at the present time there are only four classes being held in the 6-story building.
