520 |a The conference reported in this document provided a forum for California's public postsecondary education officials to address issues related to the underrepresentation of ethnic minority students. An introduction provides statements on the nature of the problem, reasons for the problem, possible solutions, conference objectives, and conference format. The body of the report is divided into five sections giving the conference findings on each of the main topics of discussion. Section 1 covers organizational environment including the need for culturally diverse campus climates, improved program integration and coordination, and the need for data collection. Section 2 discusses academic support services calling for increased service evaluation, establishment of goals, ethnically diverse staff, and service coordination. Section 3 addresses student support services and focuses on the need for cooperative approaches, more role models, and increased financial aid. Section 4 covers early outreach and student preparation; and calls for improved academic preparation, plan coordination, and greater effectiveness. Section 5 discusses faculty and curriculum and the need for minority faculty recruitment and culturally diverse subject matter. Each section lists forces identified as driving or restraining the issue under discussion. Also included in each section are explanatory discussions and policy recommendations. (JB)
