A few years ago the faculty voted to accept the proposal that there be an independent Black Music division. A few weeks ago another decision, consistent as it is with the school's sense of fair play and the separate but equal status of the two music divisions, yet typical of the basic fallacy at the core of the situation, was handed down through the administration. It was decreed: .that· each music division would have use of the carriage barn three and one half days per week."en-USAn open address to the Bennington College community in the form of a letter to Dr. Murphy
