Abstract
- The article reports that many black students win in student elections at universities purely dominated by white students. It is alleged that the black students more often take the office of student body president at the nation's highest-ranked universities, where they were not even permitted to enroll 45 years ago. Among those that won as student presidents are Inman Page of Brown University in 1877 and Sherrill D. Luke of University of California at Los Angeles in 1949.
