The diversity of Stanford’s undergraduate student body increased markedly in the early 1970s with greater participation of Jews, African-Americans, Latinos, and women. A bit later, a determined effort to diversify the University’s faculty was formally initiated. These events led, in turn, to greater diversity of our graduate and professional student bodies. With broad support from the Stanford staff, faculty and trustees, two foci of these undertakings were the Faculty Senate’s Committee on Undergraduate Admissions and Financial Aid (C-UAFA) and the Faculty Affirmative Action (FAA) program. Throughout these endeavors, the University sought relatively successfully to both achieve greater social equity and enhance its scholarly/educational capabilities.
Arthur (Artie) Bienenstock chaired C-UAFA from 1969 to 1972 and was responsible for FAA from 1972 to 1977. In this talk, Bienenstock deals with some of the major events of that period, and some of the people behind those events, from his C-UAFA and FAA perspectives. The talk ends with a brief discussion of our present situation, with some aspects about which we should be quite pleased, but with some disappointments and concerns.
