Simpson, Robert J. – 1974
Anyone concerned with education or law must realize the significance of the search for ways to give equal educational opportunity to all of the nation's learners. While the desegregation movement has existed for two centuries, it is so complex that it is still on the frontier of the law. The cutting edge now touches the issues of multidistrict…

Bose, Lewis C. – 1974
Desegregation in education is now a matter of national policy initiated by the Federal courts and spurred on by Congress in the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Emergency School Aid Act of 1972. No one, however, has attempted to delineate a comprehensive set of guiding rules, or a reasonable modus operandi in resolving disputes. Within a single…

On the whole, the issue of segregation in New York is defacto rather than dejure, so that racial imbalance stems from discriminatory residential patterns. The document discusses the applicable legal cases under such headings as forbidden…

Coffin, Gregory C. – 1967
Discussed are the methods used by Evanston's Board of Education to desegregate the entire school system. In 1964 the Board resolved to eliminate defacto segregation and a citizen's commission was appointed to develop a plan. Aided by computer experts, a redistribution of students was worked out which used the schools more efficiently while…

District Court, New York, NY. Eastern District of New York. – 1974
Plaintiffs are students enrolled in Franklin K. Lane High School, and they sue on behalf of all others similarly situated for an adjudication that their school has been so zoned as to make and keep it a segregated school in spite of its location. They moved to enjoin further enforcement of the school's zoning. The board moved for summary judgment.…

Katzman, Martin T. – 1980
Between 1970 and 1977, the proportion of black children in metropolitan areas increased in all regions except the Northeast, while in all regions but the West the white population declined. Although the thrust toward school desegregation since the landmark "Brown vs. Board of Education" decision of 1954 has tended to exacerbate white and/or…
