Abstract
- The article discusses Washington, D.C.-based Georgetown University's (Georgetown's) plan to implement a series of steps to atone for the educational institution's slavery-related past, and it mentions Georgetown President John J. DeGioia and the expectation that the school will award preferential status in the admissions process to descendants of the slaves who were sold by Georgetown. Georgetown's plan to rename college buildings after African-American slaves and educators is assessed.
