...program was best characterized by Indjic's performance of the Etudes. These are the exercises that teach the skills of which virtuosity is made. Indjic did his exercises remarkably well. Despite his choice of very quick tempi, he tossed off the flying octaves, thirds, and arpeggios with impeccable clarity and accuracy. Only in Op. 10, no. 4, did the racing notes melt into an indistinguishable blur. In every case he clearly solved the problem of extracting the melodic line from a morass of notes and floating it above the cleanly formed accompaniment. His facility was most clearly demonstrated...

Of course much of Harvard's standard of competence is related to the prolific and compulsive turning out of books and to publishing in the prestigious academic journals. Does the fact that most Negro academics do not fall into this category make them out of bounds of Harvard...
...better or worse, most private Negro colleges seem likely to survive. They will continue to recruit most of their students from all-Negro Southern high schools and to send a substantial proportion of their graduates back to teach in those high schools, unable to break out of the cycle of mis-education and deprivation.
