program attempting to
involve as many areas as
possible. To be most
effective, it has developed a
totally supportive staff,
fully sensitized to the
institutions at any level or
location that will meet their
needs. Emphasis is also
placed on less-than-
honorable discharges, drug
addiction, disabled vete
rans, and health care
benefits.
There is a total commit
ment on the part of the
school’s administration as
to the growing need and
awareness of the veterans
program. Evidence may be
seen of this by the fact of
the university’s liberal
entrance policies. The
university has committed
itself to waver certain
entrance requirements to
accomodate the experience
of entering veterans. There
are also several programs
at the University which are
committed to providing
instruction for minority and
other students with special
needs and experience.
The success of the A&T
Veteran Center will be
based on the growth and
quality of the finished
products (the Veterans).
When the Veteran success
fully completes his pro
gram, enters the world of
work, and becomes a
productive member of
society, then and only then ’
is the program successful.

FRED GUIDRY’S THREE SONS
WILL EARN MORE IN 1973THAN
HE HAS EARNED FOR 200YEARS.
It’s not unusual to find three college grad
uates in the same American family. Unless its a
family from Opelousas. Louisiana, right in the
center of rural black America.
Fred Guidry has been a sawmill worker
since 1933. earning at most $2400 a year. He's
locked in a 200 year-old cycle of poverty,
ignorance and prejudice that seems almost
unbreakable.
But his sons broke out.
For openers. Jarties. Fred and Larry grad
uated from Xavier University. New Orleans, in
’68.'69 and‘72.
After a year with IBM, James joined the
Los Alamos Project, earned an M. S. in Com
puter Sciences and is now at Carnegie-Mellon
studying Urban Affairs.
Fred researches solar physics at NASA's
Goddard Space Flight Center.
, Larry will return to his Ph. D. studies in
chemistry at the University of Pittsburgh after
completing his hitch with Uncle Sam.
Fred duidrys three sons have an earning
potential he only dreamed of. But they might
never have made it without the United Negro
College Fund.
We support Xavier and 39 other private
colleges that help 45.000 students break out of
the rural backwaters and urban ghettos of this
country and into 20th century America.
We know there's a place for them. We know
we can help them find it. Ail we need is money.
Yours.
A Mind is a Terrible Thing to Waste.
