In the second part of our conversation, Dr. Hampton traces her path from Central High to a career spent almost entirely helping other people find their footing. She talks about arriving at Earlham College and discovering, for the first time, that she wasn't the strongest student in the room — graduating as a C+ student and doubting she could go to graduate school at all. A conversation with a professor at the University of Chicago, and later a decision to leave her first marriage and move to New York on her own, opened a career in higher education administration that took her to Wisconsin, Iona College, and Southwestern University, mostly working with students who didn't fit traditional admissions criteria. Hampton then explains what drew her back to Arkansas after three decades away — the presidency of the Winthrop Rockefeller Foundation — and describes a major project she led: a four-year effort with UALR and the Japanese American National Museum documenting the wartime internment of Japanese Americans at Rohwer and Jerome, Arkansas. She reflects on why she resists being called a leader, and what she thinks that word obscures about how change actually happens.
