Scranton Stories: Sherman Wooden
I spent almost 20 years [at The University of Scranton]. I got a huge commitment from the president and from the person who was in charge of the student affairs… [there were] other people who may be interested in this education…but they are not sure if [they] can come, if everybody [they] see there is Caucasian. So, it meant we just had to broaden it and make it something that was… multicultural.Scranton is made up of many individuals…We made a conscientious effort to make sure across the board, treat everybody how you wanted to be treated.Don’t ever accept that you cannot do something. I don’t care what they are saying…there’s no sense being here on earth if you’re not here to make contributions to others, to improve the plight of those around you.
