Aids 70 Deprived Students.
By LAURENCE KIRSHBAUM
Seventy disadvantaged students, most of them Negroes, will enter
most comprehensive scholarship program.
They are the first group of participants in the Opportunity
Award Scholarship Program unveiled last year. The program mainlyA I. I.L A NIE
seeks qualified Detroit-area Negroes, offering them a number of
aids-financial, academic and personal-to ease their adjustment
to University life.
Disadvantaged youths of all races are eligible since the program ~
specializes in remedying academic difficulties which stem from
inferior secondary schooling. Without the program's academic boost, .I.)F ET H
many of these students, although well qualified for admission, would
fluk out.
Talent Scouts
The initial 70 freshmen entrants (66 Negroes and four whites)
carried out by admissions and other officials last year. To aid the
qest, the University borrowed a top-ranking Detroit school ad-~
ministrator, Leonard Sain, for the 1963-64 year. He has now returned ~
to his Detroit duties and is being replaced here by Murray Jackson
of Wayne State University in early September.
Sain and other officials sought to bolster, what he once called
"the pathetically small number'? of Negro students on this campus. ;
In a campus-wide survey, he had found only 200.

The 70 opportunity award winners emerged from two sources: n H
needy students from the Detroit area who applied for Regents or TO a d F ROM THE CENT ER
almischolarships; and qualified students recommended specifically
for the program by high school counselors.
Each of the accepted youths was guaranteed financial assistance
for- each year of study here with scholarships ranging from $180- e 8 S O S TO FUL I
$1650. These funds now come from University coffers, but private /3 T R S T U FL
investment in the program may be sought later.
Finding the students and meeting their financial needs is only EV ER'TUDE T N EE
part of the multi-faceted opportunity award program. To clarify for E Y S NT N EE
