"William Boyd Allison Davis" was an educator, anthropologist, writer, researcher, and Scholarly method#Scholars/scholar. He was considered one of the most promising black scholars of his generation, and became the first African-American to hold a full Faculty (teaching staff)/faculty position at a major white university when he joined the staff of the University of Chicago in 1942, where he would spend the balance of his academic life. Among his students during his tenure at the University of Chicago were anthropologist St. Clair Drake and sociologist Nathan Hare. Davis, who has been honored with a commemorative postage stamp by the United States Postal Service, is best remembered for his pioneering anthropological/anthropology research on southern race (classification of human beings)/race and social class/class during the 1930s, his research on intelligence tests/intelligence quotient in the 1940s and '50s, and his support of “compensatory education” that contributed to the intellectual genesis of the federal program Head Start Program/Head Start.[http://www.lib.uchicago.edu/e/scrc/findingaids/view.php?eadid=ICU.SPCL.DAVISA&q=Anthropologists Guide to the Allison Davis Papers 1932-1984.]

Our motivation was to just keep pressing and force turnovers. Our starters picked it up in the second half and considering we played without one of starters, it forced us to rely more on our backcourt.
