Reid to Lecture on Minorities
"Jf I want to build up a set of
reactions, it is best to spend time
talking to the college students,
because the sounding board of the
community is the campus. Besides,
students are always willing to dis
cuss a topic," said Dr.. Ira DeA.
Reid who arrived, at the College
yesterday.
A professor of 'sociology at At
lanta University, Reid will de
liver a lecture on "Minorities—
Assets or Threats" in 121 Sparks

r^ur-•day stay he will address sev.•
eral classes in sociology, rural
sociology, and education.
When asked for a possible solu
tion to the minority problem, Dr.
Reid commented, "There are four
theoretically perfect solutions for
the minority, people: extinction,
exclusion, assimilation, and ac
commodation. In my •address this
evening, I will endeavor to exam
ine the roles of •the people who
have been minorities.

ed by creed or race, but rather
they are people who hold a sub
ordinate place in our society."
When asked What major point
he would like to put across during
his stay at the College, Professor
Reid said, "I am disturbed about
the many people who want to do
something about a particular
problem. People are very anxious
to act before they have a knowl
edge and faith in the problem.
First there are things to know,
things to believe in, and then,
come the things to do. The ad
justment of human beings is not
to be done from a reaction to a
frustration, but rather by a logi
cal process."
