Description

The report was written by the Virginia State Advisory Committee for the U.S Commission of Civil rights. The committee accused George Mason College on violating civil right laws towards black students and faculty. The U.S. commission relied on admissions policies, college life, entrance requirements, etc… Which would determine if George Mason characterized institutional racism. The report includes black students experiences, and the college effort to include more diversity into their school, but failing to do so.
