Cornell Council Begins Discrimination Study

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Cornell student council members began a study of discrimination at their college this week, when the Council voted unanimously to establish a special committee on the subject.

This action grew out of a resolution of the National Inter-Fraternity Council, asking local chapters to study their discrimination problems.

The Cornell Daily Sun, undergraduate daily, states that although the exact status of the discrimination situation at Cornell is not known, it feels that there is no real problem.

The color line is almost non-existent, the Sun says, because there are not enough Negroes at the college to create any problem. There is really no religious discrimination either, the paper maintains.

So far the committee has made no report.
