A & T STUDENTS JOURNEY NORTH TO STUDY
URBAN ILLS FIRST HAND
By Richard Moore
GREENSBORO, N. C. ? A
new student-teaching approach,
designed to prepare young teach
ers to face problems of the in
ner city, will send seven A&T
State University students for five
weeks of practical experience in
Philadelphia and Camden, N.J.
The project, a joint effort be
tween A&T and Rutgers Uni
versity, is being financed by a
$10,000 grant from the U. S. De
partment of Health, Education
and Welfare.
Coordinator for the Inner-Ur
ban Problems program is Dr.
Dorothy Prince, acting chairman
of the A&T Department of Ed
ucation and Dr. Rose Cioffi,
teacher at Rutgers and chair
man of the Pennsauken, N. J.,
School Board. Dr. Prince and
the students left Greensboro for
Camden last Sunday.
"Urban problems is a concern
of the nation," said Dr. Prince.
"We believe that this experience
in two of our large metropolitan
areas will help these young peo
ple develop sensitivity and com
petence, both needed by teach
ers in urban areas."
All of the students selected
for the project are in their fi
nal semester at A&T and have
selected teaching as a career
choice.
Besides the usual student
teaching experiences, the A&T
students will be expected to ob
serve and participate In a wide
range of activities in the two
northern communities.
Included already on the stu
dents' full program are three
City Council meetings in Cam- 1
den, three meetings of the Cam
den and Philadelphia boards of
education and several sessions
at the experimental Learning
Center.
Dr. Prince said the students
will also observe the operations
of the nationally known Oppor
tunities Industrialization Cen
ter, operated by the Rev. Leon
Sullivan, and other projects of
the Office of Economic Oppor
tunities and the Department of
Housing and Urban Develop
ment (HUD).
The students, who will live in
homes in the two communities, j
will also have an opportunity
to conduct research on problems
in urban education.
Following their return from
their Northern stay, the students
will complete their student teach
ing in selected Greensboro pub
lic schools.
Participating in the program
are Leslie Dula, Lenoir, N. C.;
Barbara Campbell, Trenton, N.
J.; Thomas Hagar, Rockingham,
N. C.; William Guy, Greensboro;
, Aona Harrington, Washington,
| D. C.; Tony Mitchell, Lumber
ton, N. C.; and Jasper Woods,
| Ayden, N. C.
Racial Separation No Answer
Says Black Federal Judge
Embracing the concept of ra
cial separation will not solve the
nation's major problems during
the 1970's, according to A. Leon
Higginbotham, a black Federal
District Court Judge from Phil
adelphia.
"Black consciousness does not
mean becoming anti-white," said
Higginbotham, "because racial
isolation limits one's options.
The only group that has gotten
a separate society is the Amer
ican Indian and they are five
times worse off than the lowest
black."
Higginbotham, who overcame
a ghetto background to become
the youngest appointee to a fed
eral district court in 1964, ad
dressed 200 persons at A&T
State University Sunday.
"I love the concept of black
consciousness," added Higgln
botham, "but I don't anyone has
the right to assume that black
separatism will mean more Jus
tice for all. I see the concept only
as a means of the ultimate end
of an open society."
"The problems of the 1970V*
he said, "will be how can we
move from a decade of protest
into a decade of solutions? In
order to solve these problems,
we will need a coalition of all
who have a similar goal."
"It is easy to get applause
when you indict the system,"
said Higginbotham to his audi
ence of mostly students. "How
ever, the educated man Is more
than just angry; he is also an
issue resolver."
Higginbotham urged the stu
