Science Center
Entices Blacks .
Into High Tech
ATLANTA (AP) - dark Atlanta
University officials hope their
planned $36 million Research Center .
for Science and Technology will help
propel more blacks into high-tech
fields.
“The under-representation of
minorities in science, engineering
and math is alarming,” said Thomas
W. Cole Jr., president predominantly
black private school. “The science
research center will allow Clark
Atlanta University to play a direct
role in reversing those trends.”
Ground breaking for the center is
scheduled for Monday. It is due to
open In 1M1. Clark Atlanta is
responsible for raising $13 million for
the center; the remaining costs will
be covered by federal funds.
' The lack of blacks pursuing majors
in the sciences is part of a nationwide
trend that has seen the number of
freshmen interested in such degrees
fall by one-third in 20 years,
according to a University of
. California study.
The new center also will serve as an
incubator for black-owned high
'■ technology businesses, and will
provide math and science short
courses and workshops for high
school students and teachers, school
officials said __

Again As Prexy
WASHINGTON — A primary long
term goal of the Republican National
Committee (RNC) is attracting more
black voters and helping black
Republicans win local and state
offices, GOP chairman Lee Atwater
said during a recent meeting.
Atwater told 30 members of the
National Black Republican Council’s
executive board that his short-range
goal for 1990 is to win key elections to
state legislative seats, giving
Republicans a say when new
congressional districts are drawn in
1991.
The discussion with the Black
Republican group was the latest in a
series of meetings Atwater has
initiated with black civic leaders,
businessmen and politicians since he
became chairman in January
Atwater said he hopes Republican
candidates will get 20 percent of the
black vote by 1992. In 1988, about 12
percent of black voters supported
George Bush.
