Secondary-school winners of the Princeton Prize in Race Relations came together with 80 Princeton-area high school students this spring in a Class of 1966-sponsored symposium meant to spark ideas for improving relations in the students’ communities.
The idea behind the Princeton Prize Symposium on Race Relations, which has been held for three years, “was to do something to give back,” said Bernard “Bud” D’Avella ’66. Classmate Henry Von Kohorn, who is now vice president of the Alumni Council (and a PAW board member), “stepped up and came up with something that resonates with everyone and has substance.”
