Affirmative Action Strategies and Professional Schools: Case Illustrations of Exemplary Programs.
Twale, Darla J.; And Others
Higher Education, v24 n2 p177-92 Sep 1992
A study of seven diverse professional schools suggests that, although a variety of strategies (e.g., early identification, preprofessional contact, resocialization of faculty and matriculated students, and support services) can produce successful affirmative action for women and minority students, a concise, directed program geared to the school's characteristics is most effective.
