Transcript | University of Houston 3 801 CULLEN BOULEVARD HOUSTON 4. TEXAS OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT April 30, 1957 Mr. William J. Ikerman 602 E. Victory Drive Savannah, Georgia Dear Mr. Ikerman: Your letter of April 20 addressed to the Registrar has been referred to me for reply. Your AA Degree from Armstrong College will enable you to enter the University of Houston as a Junior upon presentation of proper transcripts, subject, of course, to an evaluation of your credits. As far as the integration question is concerned, the University of Houston has never admitted Negro students. It is not possible, however, to foretell how recent and future court actions may affect the admission policies of this or any other university. Sincerely, Clanton W. Williams President ekr |
