College guide helps

United Press International
PROVIDENCE, R.I. —Barry
Beckham was an eager but woe
fully unprepared student when
he left his home in New Jersey in
the 1960s to attend Brown Uni
versity.
“I was floundering academic
ally and there was nobody to
help me. I learned by trial and
error,” Beckham recalled.
Even though he was an “inve
terate college guide reader,”
Beckham’s research was lacking
in one crucial area: What did
Brown offer him, a black stu
dent?
Beckham, 38, survived the in
itial academic shock quite well
and is now an associate profes
sor of English at Brown’s Gradu-

ate Program in Writing. And
now, the successful novelist is
putting together a guide he
hopes will ease the often painful
college experience for students
who are black.
“The Black Student’s Guide
to Colleges” is a student and
administrative profile of 165 in
stitutes of higher learning across
the nation. It is designed to
answer the questions asked most
often by black applicants.
Beckham, who still could pass
for an undergraduate, said the
collection of essays, observations
and basic facts addresses the
concerns of the black high
school student making the big
move to college.
“Black students need an en
tirely different set of informa
tion than they get in ordinary
guides,” he said. “In choosing
between Brown and Princeton,
or any school the black student
looks at, he has to ask: ‘How
comfortable will I be, not only
academically but psychologic
ally?’”
Beckham said the guide is
particularly needed now with
more blacks going on to college.
When he graduated from
Brown in 1966, the graduating
class at the Ivy League school
included three other black men.
Today, between 400 and 500
black men and women attend
Brown University.
But there’s a flip side to the
higher enrollment figures.
Black students are dropping out
at an alarming rate, Beckham
said.
“The name of the game is re
tention,” he said.
The guide should prepare

black students for what’s instore
before they attend their first
class, he said. It will focus on
several key areas: social, acade
mic, financial aid, black organi
zations and off-campus climate.
A key to a black student’s suc
cess, he said, is what sup|X)itser
vices are available — tutoring,
professional services arid alumni
activities, which can provide a
valuable role model in telling
students how alumni survived,
he said.
A
Black professional societies
are an important aspect of
achievement, he said.
“There are some thingsonlya
black medical student can tell
another black student,” he said.
“It’s the old-boy networking sys
tem of survival. We have to teed
each other to help each other."
A college’s social life, another
key question of any freshman,is
answered in the guide willi
emphasis on black activities. Par
ties, sports, entertainment and
Other diversions are all touched
upon.
“My experience was very,
very difficult,” Beckham saidof
his undergraduate years
“There was no black social life,
no black faculty, no black stu
dents, no black parties. Since
then, there have been tremen
dous changes.”
A typical entry for a studentit
a small, competitive Californii
college will advise appliqmts:
“The counseling services are
very good, but there are no blad
counselors except our assistanl
dean of admission, whoaloneis
trying to accommodate all of our
needs.”

A student at a small Rhode te’sco
Island college warns of the
school’s "intimidating whiteness
and uninspiring social life, (bull
most black students are pleased
with their choice.”
A community’s racial atmos
phere is also surveyed.
“The town-and-gown aspect
is very important,” Beckham
said. One college, a member of
the Seven Sisters, was ranked
very high by black students for
its academics.
“But one student said shop
keepers looked suspiciously only
at black students when they
shopped,” Beckham said.
Beckham collected his infor
mation through mail surveys
submitted f rom five black stu
dents at each college. One admi
nistrator at each school was
asked to complete a question
naire on such basic facts as en
rollment, the number of black
students, tuition and finandal
aid opportunities.
T he guide also contains a
ranking of the top colleges for
blacks and essays on writing
term papers, on study skills and
on the black student-athlete.
Beckham was assisted by
student editors in sorting the in
formation. “I’ve got students
working on this who said they
could have used the guide.”
From the intitial response,
Beckham sees a need for the
guide.
“We are finding almost blank
et agreement that blacks arc;
having transitional problems,"•
he said. “The progressive:
schools have programs to deal:
with these problems.”

NEW YORK (UPI) — Swed
ish medical researchers say pa
tients who combine aspirin with
a diet rich in fish may stave off
heart disease.
A report in Therapaeia, the
monthly supplement of the
Medical Tribune, says Dr. Mar-
greta Thorngren, of Sweden’s
University of Lund, found
potentially dangerous blood
clots reduced in 35 healthy
volunteers who were fed aspirin
and fish daily. The Tribuneisa
New York-based medical
journal.
In the same report, Dr. Peter
Elwood said six studies of aspir
in have shown a 10-15 percent
reduction in cardiac mortality
and a 20-25 percent reduction in
non-fatal second heart attacks
among men. Elwood is director
of the epidemiological unit of
the British Medical Research
Council.
