Orientation for African-American Students at a Small, Liberal Arts College.

McNeil, Ogretta V.

National Academic Advising Association Journal, v10 n2 p4-8 Fall 1990

A three-day program at the College of the Holy Cross (Massachusetts) was developed to address low retention rates for African-American students meeting the usual predictive criteria for academic success. It familiarized students with the college, allowed them to meet significant college community members, and assisted in adapting to academic demands. (Author/MSE)
