Dean Monro to Teach At All-Negro College

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Dean Monro has volunteered to teach without pay next summer at all-Negro Miles College in Birmingham, Ala. Miles, a non-accredited institution with an enrollment of 810, is the only four-year college available to most of the 2000 annual graduates of Birmingham's Negro high schools.

Monro will probably teach English to high school graduates whose background in the subject has not prepared them for college work. The dean's interest in Miles stems from a faculty seminar on general education which he led at the college in September.
