Created as a liberal arts college to provide increased access to minority students, it was placed in a mainly minority neighborhood, where it received exceptionally strong support from a middle class African American community seeking access to quality higher education for its children and a business community striving to overcome the effects of "white flight." 606 $aMinorities$xEducation (Higher)$zNew York (State)$zNew York 606 $aUrban renewal$zNew York (State)$zNew York 607 $aJamaica (New York, N.Y.)$xSocial conditions 615 0$aMinorities$xEducation (Higher) 615 0$aUrban renewal 676 $a378.747/243 700 $aParmet$b Robert D.$f1938-$01854940 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910973968303321 996 $aTown and gown$94452827 997 $aUNINA
