Almetris Marsh Duren was a key figure in
University of Texas at Austin life from 1958 through 1981. Known as "Mama
Duren" or "Mama D," Duren was a mentor, counselor, adviser and inspiration to
young people for four decades. She began her career as a housemother and served
as a University student development specialist and adviser in the Dean of
Students Office from 1968 through 1981. Duren served as student advisor and
house mother for the first African American students at the University of Texas
at Austin. She helped establish Project Info, UT Austin's first minority
recruitment program, and was founder of the Innervisions Gospel Choir. She also
helped recruit minority faculty.
A graduate of Tillotson College, Duren began her influence on the UT
Austin campus in 1958, when she got a job as a housemother for black women
students in off-campus housing known as the Modified Co-op. Earlier she had
worked as a resident hostess at Eliza Dee Hall, a Methodist dorm at
Huston-Tillotson, then the only residence hall for Austin's black female
college students. In 1968, she joined the staff of the Dean of Students Office,
as a counselor and adviser to students and student groups.
Duren made
special efforts to help black students overcome feelings of alienation during
the 1950s and 1960s as the campus slowly integrated, combining encouragement
and mentoring with direct, practical help. Duren assisted students trying to
obtain financial aid and housing in a segregated town. Her efforts included
feeding hungry young people herself and reaching into her personal savings to
provide small loans.
Duren made it her mission to encourage black
students to stay in school and complete their degrees. She was the co-author of
Overcoming: A History of Black Integration at The
University of Texas at Austin. The book is used in the training of
University orientation advisers. In 1978, the University presented her the
Margaret Berry Award for outstanding contributions to student life. In 1979, UT
Austin President Lorene Rogers awarded Duren the Presidential Citation for
outstanding service, noting that "in providing the one continuous link in the
history of integration at The University of Texas at Austin, Mrs. Duren has
been a guiding force for every generation of black
students."
Files maintained by Duren relate to the major University of Texas campus
issues faced by African American students from the 1950s to the 1980s. These
issues include UT admissions, housing, and other policies towards African
Americans, student organizations and cultural programs, athletics, protests,
demonstrations, and minority faculty and staff at UT. Papers consist of
manuscript material, scrapbooks, photographs, slides, and artifacts.
