Cleveland State University Investigated

As a result of Forbes charges, CSU president Walter B. Waetjen formed a committee to study the accusations. Businessman Arnold R. Pinkney was among 12 members of the Greater Cleveland Roundtable Committee to investigate the charges of racism at Cleveland State University.

Former Mayor George V. Voinovich endorsed this committee as the first step towards reconciliation through a thorough and impartial investigation.

I have a copy of the Greater Cleveland Roundtable's final report on “CSU Civic Committee on Race Relations” dated December 11, 1987. I will not post findings from the committe on my blog. Information regarding this report (and other findings) will be used in future publications, etc. I will try to show both sides of the issue.

    Stan,

    This was a major committee report that led to the creation of the office I eventually occupied.
