Nowocienski had enlisted in the Marine Corps and saw action in three Pacific invasions before being wounded on Guadalcanal and receiving his medical discharge.

He was one of the veterans housed temporarily out in Baldwinsville.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"exhibits-media-card exhibits-media-card-left\">\n<div class=\"exhibits-media-card-media\">\n<figure aria-describedby=\"image1-desc\">\n<script type='text\/javascript'>jQuery(document).ready(function(){var viewer=OpenSeadragon({id: 'deepzoomContainer9',prefixUrl:'https:\/\/digitalexhibits.syr.edu\/gibill\/wp-content\/plugins\/zoom-openseadragon\/images\/',collectionRows:false,collectionColumns:3,showNavigationControl:true,showZoomControl:true,showHomeControl:true,showFullPageControl:true,showRotationControl:false,showSequenceControl:true,sequenceMode:false,showReferenceStrip:false,showNavigator:true,navigatorId:\"\",navigatorPosition:'TOP_RIGHT',referenceStripSizeRatio:0.2,referenceStripScroll:'horizontal',referenceStripPosition:'BOTTOM_LEFT',tileSources: [{title:'test',tileSource:'\/data\/gibill\/ch7\/13-0490.dzi'}]});\n\tviewer.curItem=viewer.initialPage;\n\tviewer.curZoom=viewer.initialPage;\n\t\n\tviewer.goTo = function(index) {  \/\/ zoom on specific resource from those on screen             \n\t     this.curItem=index;    \n\t     if (this.sequenceMode) this.goToPage(this.curItem);\n\t     else this.viewport.fitBounds(this.world.getItemAt(this.curItem).getBounds());\n\t     this.curZoom=this.curItem;  \n       \n\t}\n\tviewer.hitTest = function(position) { \/\/ return resource under cursor\n\t    var box;\n\t    var count = this.world.getItemCount();\n\t    for (var i = 0; i < count; i++) {\n\t        box = this.world.getItemAt(i).getBounds();\n\t        if (position.x > box.x && \n\t                position.y > box.y && \n\t                position.x < box.x + box.width &&\n\t                position.y < box.y + box.height) {\n\t            return i;\n\t        }\n\t    }\n\t\n\t    return -1;\n\t}\n\tviewer.showMeta = function (i) \n\t       {                        \n\t       if (i!=-1) {\n\t           var title=this.tileSources[i].title;\n\t           if (title!='') jQuery('#deepzoomCaption9').html(title);\t          \n\t          }\n\t      \n\t       }\n\tviewer.addHandler('page', function (data) {\n\t   viewer.showMeta(data.page);\n\t  \n\t});\n\tviewer.addHandler('canvas-click', function(event) {\n\t    if (viewer.sequenceMode==true) return;\n\t                       \n\t    var index = viewer.hitTest(viewer.viewport.pointFromPixel(event.position));   \n\t    if ((index !== -1)&&(index!=viewer.curZoom)) {\n\t        event.preventDefaultAction = true;\n\t        viewer.goTo(index); \n\t        viewer.showMeta(index);                         \n\t    }\n\t\n\t});\n\t\n    \n        if (viewer.sequenceMode==true) viewer.showMeta(viewer.initialPage);\n   \n\t\n\t\n\t});<\/script><figure  style='width: 360px' class='wp-caption alignnone'><div class='deepzoomContainer' id='deepzoomContainer9' style='width: 360px; height: 400px;'><\/div><figcaption id='deepzoomCaption9' class='wp-caption-text'><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div id=\"image1-desc\" class=\"exhibits-media-card-text\">\n<b>Photograph of Attilio Mascone and Beatrice Jean, circa late 1940s. <a href=\"https:\/\/library.syracuse.edu\/digital\/guides_sua\/html\/sua_mascone_aa.htm\">Attilio Mascone Papers, University Archives<\/a>.

Students who were Black, Indigenous, and people of color already comprised a minority of students on campus, and they have not been well represented in the University Archives. Historical enrollment records did not document students by race, and the presence of historically underrepresented veterans is difficult to trace as well. However, a few documents in the University Archives confirm that, as early as September 1946, at least a small number of Black veterans were on the Syracuse University campus after the war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A file from the Syracuse University Treasurer\u2019s Office Records contains reports that the University was required to submit to the federal government to account for its use of temporary housing purchased from the U.S. War Department. These reports required the University to provide demographic occupancy numbers of veterans \u2014 including by race. The file is not a complete accounting of all veteran housing on campus. Black veterans probably lived in other parts on or off campus as well, but the numbers of Black veterans in these occupancy reports are very low \u2014 1 or 2 at a time \u2014 and may reflect their likely low numbers here at Syracuse University.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These low numbers were probably common at other predominantly-white colleges and universities, at least those who admitted Black students. Black veterans were just as eligible for GI Bill benefits, but the bill presented obstacles, namely systemic racism and an unhelpful Veterans Administration, which prevented many from taking advantage of them. Some Black veterans could not afford to attend college, even with the benefits. Others found that a history of poorly funded public education for Black students did not prepare them for college. Lastly, many who applied for admission faced official or unofficial quotas for Black students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"exhibits-media-card exhibits-media-card-left\">\n<div class=\"exhibits-media-card-media\">\n<figure aria-describedby=\"image1-desc\">\n<script type='text\/javascript'>jQuery(document).ready(function(){var viewer=OpenSeadragon({id: 'deepzoomContainer21',prefixUrl:'https:\/\/digitalexhibits.syr.edu\/gibill\/wp-content\/plugins\/zoom-openseadragon\/images\/',collectionRows:false,collectionColumns:3,showNavigationControl:true,showZoomControl:true,showHomeControl:true,showFullPageControl:true,showRotationControl:false,showSequenceControl:true,sequenceMode:false,showReferenceStrip:false,showNavigator:true,navigatorId:\"\",navigatorPosition:'TOP_RIGHT',referenceStripSizeRatio:0.2,referenceStripScroll:'horizontal',referenceStripPosition:'BOTTOM_LEFT',tileSources: [{title:'test',tileSource:'\/data\/gibill\/ch7\/sua_treasurer_00001.dzi'}]});\n\tviewer.curItem=viewer.initialPage;\n\tviewer.curZoom=viewer.initialPage;\n\t\n\tviewer.goTo = function(index) {  \/\/ zoom on specific resource from those on screen             \n\t     this.curItem=index;    \n\t     if (this.sequenceMode) this.goToPage(this.curItem);\n\t     else this.viewport.fitBounds(this.world.getItemAt(this.curItem).getBounds());\n\t     this.curZoom=this.curItem;  \n       \n\t}\n\tviewer.hitTest = function(position) { \/\/ return resource under cursor\n\t    var box;\n\t    var count = this.world.getItemCount();\n\t    for (var i = 0; i < count; i++) {\n\t        box = this.world.getItemAt(i).getBounds();\n\t        if (position.x > box.x && \n\t                position.y > box.y && \n\t                position.x < box.x + box.width &&\n\t                position.y < box.y + box.height) {\n\t            return i;\n\t        }\n\t    }\n\t\n\t    return -1;\n\t}\n\tviewer.showMeta = function (i) \n\t       {                        \n\t       if (i!=-1) {\n\t           var title=this.tileSources[i].title;\n\t           if (title!='') jQuery('#deepzoomCaption21').html(title);\t          \n\t          }\n\t      \n\t       }\n\tviewer.addHandler('page', function (data) {\n\t   viewer.showMeta(data.page);\n\t  \n\t});\n\tviewer.addHandler('canvas-click', function(event) {\n\t    if (viewer.sequenceMode==true) return;\n\t                       \n\t    var index = viewer.hitTest(viewer.viewport.pointFromPixel(event.position));   \n\t    if ((index !== -1)&&(index!=viewer.curZoom)) {\n\t        event.preventDefaultAction = true;\n\t        viewer.goTo(index); \n\t        viewer.showMeta(index);                         \n\t    }\n\t\n\t});\n\t\n    \n        if (viewer.sequenceMode==true) viewer.showMeta(viewer.initialPage);\n   \n\t\n\t\n\t});<\/script><figure  style='width: 360px' class='wp-caption alignnone'><div class='deepzoomContainer' id='deepzoomContainer21' style='width: 360px; height: 400px;'><\/div><figcaption id='deepzoomCaption21' class='wp-caption-text'><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div id=\"image1-desc\" class=\"exhibits-media-card-text\">\n<b>Monthly report on occupancy in veterans housing submitted by Syracuse University to the National Housing Agency and Federal Public Housing Authority, April 1947.
