SITY students will conduct a research project entitled
"Student Motivation and Student Retention in a Histori
cally Black University" under -a grant received recently
from the National Science Foundation.
The research project, funded under the National Science
Foundation's Student-Originated Studies program, will be
directed by Mrs. Helen B. Thomas of Roxboro, a senior
sociology major who was the principal author of the pro
posal for the $18,914 grant. Dr. George H. Conklin and
Francis R. Scherer of the department of sociology will
serve as faculty advisors for the study.
The students noted that most of the studies of student
reasons for leaving school or transferring have been poorly
analyzed. Many were conducted by the schools involved
and were essentially buried in red tape.

and friends with a special evening of music and art Wednes
day, March 28. Invited guests will see paintings by Mrs.
Lana Henderson of North Carolina Central University and
sculptures by Hayward Oubre of Winston-Salem State

rights law firm in Washing
ton, D.C.
Garrett L. Laws, Director
of the Coalition, said after
the banquet to a reporter,
that "it is a shame for them
(UNC and Friday) to spend
a lot of money on attorneys
when all they have to do is
spend the $120 million to
enhance the black schools."
Fayetteville State Uni
versity, Winston-Salem State
University, A&T State Uni
versity, North Carolina
Central University, and
Elizabeth City State Uni
versity are the five black
state maintained schools.
Dr. Velma Speight, an
A&T graduate, and cur
rently Assistant Superin
tendent of Maryland schools
urged maintenance of the
black schools. "We need to
maintain the black institu
tions so that our youngsters
will know that we have not
arrived," she said. Besides
continuing underfunding of
the black universities, a
major fear has been that
forced by HEW to spend
more money on black insti
tutions, UNC may opt to
liquidate black state colleges
through merger.
Despite underfunding
and discrimination against
black universities, the insti
tutions have produced a
long list of successful gradu
ates, enumerated by Ben
Ruffin, Assistant to Gov.
James H-int. Maynard Jack
son, mayor of Atalanta; Earl
Monroe, a professional bas
ketball player, Harold Webb
State Personnel Director, Al
Adams, a head basketball
coach for a professional
team; Jesse Jackson, Execu- t
live Director of People
United to Save Humanity,
Julius Chambers, civil rights
attorney; Jethro Pugh, pro
fessional ball player, and
Clarence Lightner, former"'
mayor of Raleigh, are
graduates of black state
supported institutions.

tration Program; David T. Duncan, region IV administrator for the United State Depart- hi? arid rterwa1fTifJ
ment of Labor Employment and Training Administration; Ms. M. Patricia DeVine,
coordinator of the training program; and Michael W. McKinney, acting director of the
NCCU Public Administration Program. (Dr. Baines is on leave to participate in an
American Council on Education Administrative Fellowship program).
The NCCU Public Administration Program holds a $200,000 contract from the
Department of Labor to train administrators of CETA programs. The CETA program is
designed to provide temporary employment (often in public agencies) for personnel who
are learning new skills. CETA-trained personnel are expected to find ultimate employ
ment in business and industry as well as in government. The contract was arranged for
NCCU and the Department of Labor by the Employment Security Commission.
Members of the program's Advisory Board are Archer; Ulysses Bell of the National
Rural Center, Washington, D.C; William V. Bell, Durham County Commissioner;
Richard A. Clack of the Nash-Edgecombe Counties Manpower Program; Ms. Eva M.
Clayton of the North Carolina Department of Cultural Resources and Community
Development; Herbert Dodd, Jr., of the U.S. Department of Labor, Atlanta, Fred Mc

Machines, Research Triangle Park.
remarked that efforts were
underway to contact gradu
ates of the black
and implement other of
Lee's recommendations.
Exactly what the Coali
tion's plan of action will be
is not certain. But Garrett
Laws commented after the
banquet that several stra
tegies might be employed,
including demonstrations.
Major demonstrations at
black campuses have not,
occurred since students at
A&T University were en
gaged in protests in 1968
that closed the institution.
