Description
An account of the resource
"The 500 Program and the Incidents at the Union" addresses a number of things surrounding the attitudes of different people on campus. Following the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr., the University of Illinois decided to bring in 500 "disadvantaged" students. They came from various places across the country, including Illinois, Philadelphia, Watts, and Birmingham. They were promised a number of things regarding financial aid and housing. When the university did not keep up on those things, the students began asking questions. They were not given the amount of loan money they were promised and they were told that they may have to work, another thing the university had told them would not have to happen. After their arrival they were placed in the Illinois Street Residence Halls, but as the school year came closer they were moved into small rooms and lounges that were falling apart. All of these things led up to the night of the September 9, 1968.

A May 18, 1968 Daily Illini article about one of Chancellor Jack W. Peltason’s “Chancellor’s Chats” events where he spoke about Project 500 and SEOP. Peltason painted the program as a facet of “educational reform” and said the program’s qualifications were not racial, but for disadvantaged “people who otherwise might not have this opportunity” for a college education. Peltason explained that the program would feature a high number of black students because African-Americans were disadvantaged as “a result of society's discrimination.” He also drew parallels between Project 500 and the University’s programs for the physically disabled, saying the school’s educational standards were not lowered for the physically handicapped and will not be lowered for SEOP students. Furthermore, he compared preparatory and skill-development courses for disadvantaged students to therapists the University provided for physically handicapped students saying about potential SEOP students, “You don't have to be much of a teacher to teach superbright students” and “It takes a scholar to make a scholar.”
