The Needs of the Chicano on the College Campus.
Gomez, Anna Nieto; Vasquez, J. Anthony
The problems of the Chicano (Mexican American) student on the college campus can be alleviated in the following ways: (1) summer institutes for incoming freshmen providing bilingual classes, bilingual teachers, and remedial English; (2) an orientation program to make the student aware of the bureaucratic procedures of a university; (3) a counseling system whereby upper division Chicanos would advise and help entering students; (4) free health facilities provided for the Chicano student to ease his financial burden; (5) less expensive housing on campus, or rent supplement programs subsidized by the Federal Government; (6) more extensive financial aid programs or expansion of existing programs, such as National Defense Education Act loans and Educational Opportunity Grants; and (7) changes in the Selective Service System because of discriminatory practices against Mexican American students. Related documents are RC 003 429, RC 003 431, RC 003 432 and RC 003 436. (RH)
