Stanford, Harvard and Yale are debating whether to offer degrees in Afro-American studies. A proposed major at Yale would require specialization in a discipline, such as history, economics or political science, then examine the approaches of several disciplines toward Negro culture in a junior-year seminar, finish with a senior-year colloquium and a major paper. The leader in promoting black culture as a separate discipline, however, has been San Francisco State. Negro Sociologist Nathan Hare, who has a doctorate from the University of Chicago, supervises 15 courses, ranging from Avant-Garde Jazz to Ancient Black History and Swahili...
