More than 6,400 requests for technical assistance were serviced from 1,300 school districts; approximately three-fourths of these requests were from Southern and border states. A major service was assisting school systems with the development of comprehensive desegregation plans. Other forms of assistance included disestablishment of dual school systems and operation of training programs, workshops, and summer institutes. (Author/DM)
