- Summary:
-
Ten recommendations for increasing minority participation in graduate education are offered by the Council of Graduate Schools (CGS) Task Force on Minorities in Graduate Education. The recommendations are submitted for approval and implementation by the Board of CGS. The recommendations include the following: CGS should begin a Minority Dean in Residence Program; CGS should serve as a clearinghouse to collect and disseminate information on minority issues on campuses, and legislation on minority students; CGS should authorize the publication of a guide on successful minority graduate recruitment, retention, graduation, and placement strategies; CGS should hire a professional editor to work with graduate deans to develop a booklet describing graduate education and opportunities resulting from graduate studies; CGS should give high priority to recruitment, retention, and financial support of minority graduate students in all its activities, programs, and publications; and the Board of CGS should appoint a standing committee on minority graduate student affairs to advise the Board and staff on programs, issues, and policies that affect minority graduate students, faculty, and staff at CGS institutions. The appendixes, which comprise five-sixths of the document, consist of supplementary materials to support selected recommendations. These include such topics as: (1) the educational background of Hispanics, by Richard P. Duran; (2) a proposal to study ABDs ("All But Dissertation"), by David Madsen; and (3) early intervention research and support programs. (SW)
