Description<\/strong><\/td>\nStan Shaw was Chairman of the Student Help Project at Queens College from January 1963 through January 1964. The Student Help Project organized Queens College students to provide free tutoring services to schoolchildren in South Jamaica, Queens (circa 1962-1968) and in Prince Edward County, Virginia (summer of 1963). In South Jamaica the volunteers assisted children who were below grade level. In Prince Edward County they tutored African American children who had been denied formal schooling since 1959, when the County shut down their public schools rather than enforce court ordered desegregation. Queens College Education professors Dr. Rachel Weddington and Dr. Sidney Simon coordinated these initiatives with Shaw and other students. As a result of this collaboration, by the fall of 1963 over 220 students had participated in the South Jamaica project and 16 students had spent 6 weeks tutoring in Prince Edward County. The collection contains newspaper and magazine articles, reports, photographs, press releases, and a diary documenting the Student Help Project in New York and Virginia.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
