| Summary: | This illustrated report was published as volume 4, number 1 of The Oakwood Bulletin. In it, Principal C. J. Boyd discusses the school's history, administration, and achievements; the needs of the student body in particular, and African American citizens in general ("I would like to say that while it would seem that we are expending a large sum of money annually in behalf of Negro education, yet the economic conditions of the Negro make this necessary. If we are to ever accomplish a great work for him, we will have to take hold of him in his present condition and do the work for him even though it is a little expensive for us. Financially the negro is very poor."); and the financial needs of the school and plans for expansion. Oakwood operated under the auspices of the Negro department of the North American Division Conference of Seventh-Day Adventists. |
