Of 43,000 engineers graduating in 1971 only 407 were Black, a tragic total of less than 1 percent available for industry's top engineering leadership slots. ln keeping with Wilberforce University's constant push to provide relevant education for its Black students and through the interest and efforts of President Rembert Stokes and Academic Dean Yvonne Taylor and others, a new program has been launched. On Friday, January 26, 1972, the President of Wilberforce and the President of the University of Dayton signed an agreement to institute a dual-degree program between these two outstanding private institutions. Students will enroll at Wilberforce for three years and at the University of Dayton School of Engineering for two years and at the end of the five-year period will receive a degree from each institution. Wilberforce is presently in the process of recruiting a director who must have at least one degree in engineering. The plan is to have on campus by September 1973 fifty new students who will enter this intensified and specialized program. lndustry is enthusiastic and excited about the fact that the oldest Black institution in America has now achieved another first. lt is our hope to be the first Black institution to turn out a great number of the new leaders in engineering science for industry as we have done in the past in education, the social sciences, the ministry and many other areas in higher education. Present in picture: SEATED: President Rembert Stokes of Wilberforce University and President Raymond A. Roesch, S. M., ofthe University of Dayton. STANDING: Academic Dean Yvonne Taylor of Wilberforce University and Dr. David Kraft, Dean of the School of Engineering at Dayton University.
