FIRST STEPS

Earlier today, I received word that the Spencer Foundation has approved my request for a $25,000 grant to fund the research component of the program I shall be running at Bennett College.  Dania Francis will be conducting the research.  This is a small but essential first step in what I hope will be a series of grants to underwrite the Bennett project.  The distinguished sociologist Christopher Jencks was instrumental in making contact for me with the Spencer Foundation.  "Lifting as we climb."
