Horace Mann Bond (November 8, 1904 – December 21, 1972) was an American historian, college administrator, social science researcher, and the father of civil-rights leader Julian Bond. He earned a master's and doctorate from University of Chicago, at a time when only a small percentage of any young adults attended any college. He was an influential leader at several historically black colleges and was appointed the first president of Fort Valley State University in Georgia in 1939, where he managed its growth in programs and revenue. In 1945 he became the first African-American president of Lincoln University, Pennsylvania.〔Urban, W. J. (1989), The black scholar and intelligence testing: The case of Horace Mann Bond. J. Hist. Behav. Sci., 25: 323–334.〕〔Wayne J. Urban. 1989. Philanthropy and the Black Scholar: The Case of Horace Mann Bond. The Journal of Negro Education , Vol. 58, No. 4 (Autumn, 1989), pp. 478-493〕 ==Early life and education== Horace was born 8 November 1904 in Nashville, Tennessee, the grandson of slaves. His mother, Jane Alice Browne, was a schoolteacher, and his father, James Bond, was a minister who served at Congregational churches across the South, often associated with historically black colleges. Both had graduated from Oberlin College in Ohio, one of the first colleges that was interracial. They were among the black elite and encouraged their children in academic achievement.〔("Horace Mann Bond" ), ''New Georgia Encyclopedia'', accessed 13 Jan 2009〕〔Wayne J. Urban. 2008.

Max Bond, Sr.. He had several unpleasant encounters with whites during his childhood, including an incident where a white man shot at their house after having a fight with Horace's older brothers, and his father being arrested by their neighbor, a police officer, when they moved into an all-white street. Bond excelled in school, graduating from high school at the age of fourteen. Bond graduated with honors from Lincoln University in Pennsylvania at age 19 in 1923. He also obtained membership in Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity. At Penn State, Bond realized that he was able to compete with white classmates, earning competitive grades above the 90th percentile.〔Wayne J. Urban. 2008. Black Scholar: Horace Mann Bond, 1904-1972. University of Georgia Press, p. 18〕 Later he returned to Lincoln University as an instructor. Bond then suffered the only setback to his success; he was dismissed from the college for tolerating a gambling ring in a dormitory which he was supervising. Despite his embarrassment at Lincoln, Bond achieved a reputation as a fine scholar and administrator. Bond earned the M.A. and Ph.D degrees from the University of Chicago, where his dissertation on black education in Alabama won the Rosenberger Prize in 1936. It was published in 1939. As was customary in those years, Bond taught at a variety of academic institutions before completing his doctorate, and published his first academic book in 1934.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Horace Mann Bond」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
