Black youths discuss services
More than 150 Kansas high school students attended the sixth annual Black Leadership Symposium at KU on Friday and discussed the health and human service needs of Black Youth.
By Holly M. Neuman
Kansan staff writer
Veda Monday, a health counselor at the University of Kansas Medical Center, said it was important for Black high school students to attend conferences, such as Friday's, to learn that Blacks could be successful.
"There is an absolute need for a support system for these students," she said. "They are in need of a reminder that success is attainable and that failure to succeed costs us dearly."
Monday said she told students that issues such as health care, education and culture were related and could not be divorced from one another.
'My goal was to encourage students to stay in school, to get an education, not necessarily just for education's sake, but to couple education with goals for making change,' Monday said. 'Money empowers people in our society.'
Monday said she was concerned about the quality of education Black students were receiving.
"All of the inputs they get tell them that the only people who are successful, who are worthy, are people of European ancestry." Monday said. "That comes from the media, from their textbooks. Every part of their existence teaches them to believe that."
Jacob Gordon, executive director of KU's Center for Black Leadership Development and Research, said the students were chosen by high school counselors on the basis of academic records and involvement in leadership activities.
Student participants were required to have a minimum grade point average between 3.0 and 4.0. they said they all college-bound students involved in activities that indicate leadership potential.
Monday said the students who attended the symposium would leave knowing that there were Black role models and that they would be able to form contacts and a support system.
"I am sure it will be a very effective experience for them," she said.
Council seeking scholarship money
By Tracey Chalpin
Kansan staff writer
The All-Scholarship Hall Council may have missed out on Educational Opportunity Fund money about a month ago, but it has not given up seeking financing sources for minority scholarships, an ASHC representative said yesterday.
Bose Millese, ASHC student senator, said the council had tentative plans to examine the possibility of asking for assistance from the Department of Student Housing. Millese said he was upset about the fund committee's decision.
renewable the following year, Moselev said.
The reasons that committee members turned down the proposal were that $6,000 was too much money and that the proposal indicated that the scholarships would be
denial of the six $1,000 scholarships at the end of October. The fund is divided each year among financial aid societies at the University of Kansas to supplement existing educational resources or to finance new resources.
"I almost can't understand why they didn't fund them," Moseley said. "Some of the other decisions to fund other groups are like throwing money down a black hole."
Moseley said he was referring partly to about $20,000 that was granted to the Financial Aid office to add to money available for Supplemental Education Opportunity Grants.
He said that, as a former committee member, neweder why the committee always decided to finance that office when it already received a federal subsidy of almost $1 million.
Mike Schreiner, fund committee chairperson, said the financial aid office supplement went to students who, even after getting financial aid, barely received enough money to pay school expenses.
Schreiner said that more than $500,000 was requested from the $275,000 fund.
