Students need to maintain a grade point avareage of 3.0 or better during their high school and 2.0 or better once in college in order to continue in the program. This program is a good example of successful coordination between a university and its community in the best interests of the minority population. We can all contribute to empower and improve the quality of life of minorities in our nation. If we are students we should do our best to achieve our goals in order to raise the education level of our minority group. If we are already a faculty member, we should commit ourselves to plan and implement programs that really help minorities in our communities.
Faculty members can also work on an individual basis as mentors for new minority students.
We can all do something to decrease educational disparities. This will ensure you will know what to do in case of an emergency. Your skills and those of your crew, are your greatest asset. Never swim at night Observe the water before going in. Look for dangerous currents.
