Advocates of supply-side1
economics stress tax cuts and
regulatory reforms . to help
American industry supply
goods and services. However,
the next program on Tony
Brown's Journal, the nation's 1
top-ranked black affairs pro
gram, reveals that this premise
is not a new body of theory.
On the contrary, a university
near Houston, Texas has been
practicing this neoclassic mode
of analysis since 1966. This
edition, "Supply-Side Educa
tion," focuses oh the suc
cessful use of supply-side in
higher education at Prairie
View A&M University under
the leadership of its president,
Dr. Alvin I.. Thomas, v
Tony Brown's Journal is the
nation's longest national black;
affairs series and has been
sponsored by Pepji-Cola,
Company for seven con
secutive years. Televised na
tionally on public television
(PBS), the program will be.
seen in this area on WUNC at
7:30 on Thursday, September
23. ' -i
Tony Brown, host and ex
ecutie producer, journeys to
Prairie View A&M University
to get a first-hand look at this
black success story. He talks
to the man who is responsible,
for producing more black pro-1
fessionals each year than any
college in America, Dr. Alvin
Thomas. Dr Thomas explains ;.
the dynamics at work: "We
describe it by slogan we call,
'Operation Success' and our
follow-up slogan, which we
describe as 'Prairie View pft
duces productive people.'
That's what Prairie View is all
about, producing productive t
people to enter into the supply
side of our free enterprise '
economy."
Several surprising facts are ,
unveiled on the program. For
! example, Prairie View has
graduated more than 50 per
cent of the blacks currently
enrolled at medical and dental
schools and about 70 percent
of the black registered nurses
in Texas are graduates of
Prairie View. It is also the ma
jor producer of black
engineers.
The university has commis-.
sioned more than 1,000 of
ficers through the Army
ROTC program. The Naval
ROTC unit has commissioned
more than 110 blacks. This
represents more black Navy
officers than all of the univer
sities in the South have pro-(
duced in the history of the na
tion. Prairie View's drama group,
,,The Charles Gilpin Players,
won the Southwestern
Regionals and was picked as
one of the six finalists to per-
: form at the American Theatre
Festival's annual engagement;
. at the Kennedy Center irtj
Washington the only black
college selected.
! "SuppljT-Side Education"
analyzes the reasons for
Prairie View's phenomenal
record. Other highlights on the
program are Prairie View's
outstanding science, engineer
ing and business departments,
along with its renowned rodeo
team.
Prairie View's academic
program also emphasizes
agriculture. "Agriculture is!
big business," explains Dr.
Thomas. In fact, the universi
ty has become the interna
tional center for dairy goats.
Four million dollars is being
spent on a dairy goat research
center at Prairie View that
promises to revolutionize the
industry.
The Harlem Globetrotters have traveled over six million
miles, visited 94 countries on six continents and have
been watched by an estimated 80 million spectators.
