520 |a A survey of 162 colleges and universities found that 86 of them had some kind of involvement in efforts to enroll "high risk" students. Most of these students are from a disadvantaged, minority group background and do not have the traditional preparatory and personal experiences to qualify for admission to institutions of higher education. Questionnaire responses from 11 public and 7 private institutions indicated the nature, extent, variety of approaches, and recruitment procedures of the high risk programs. Federal government and foundation funds have financed many of the special efforts to find and prepare able disadvantaged high school students but there has been almost no support for developing programs in higher education for these students. Institutions with such programs face the issue of whether or not the students should have special programs and attention. Negro students are often torn by a conflict between their involvement with Black Power and accepting white help. The report also includes descriptions of outstanding programs at both public and private institutions as well as brief summaries of others. An appendix lists agencies and organizations which are involved with higher education opportunities. (NH)
