SEEP
(continued from page 1)
conclusion of this 10-week program
culminates in an evaluation symposium in
which the students evaluate the program
and the faculty evaluates the students.
According to Dr. Lieberman, the
program is designed for three purposes;
"1—to open opportunities for students by
providing them with information about
medical school opportunities that
previously they were either unaware of or
misinformed about; 2-to provide
students with considerable information
about medical careers so that the students
can direct their efforts in seeking a career
in medical education, and 3—to enable
the students to evaluate their
performance in a medical school
environment as well as to evaluate the
opportunities for minority students in
medicine at Duke and other institutions."
The conclusion of this year's program
will bring with it the third and final year
of SEEP's existence. The extent to which
SEEP has been a successful program is
based, in part, on the placement of those
students who participated in the program
and obtained their college degrees.
According to Dr. Lieberman's
estimates of the first two years of the
program, 17 students took part in the
program and the majority of them
embarked on careers related to medicine
and public health. He also estimated that
since the commencement of-SEEP, "the
total number of applicants at Duke
increased two-fold whereas the number of
black applicants increased six-fold."
"Indeed," Dr. Lieberman added, "we
have a long way to go, but at least we are
heading in the right direction."
