The 18 author contributed papers examine orientation programs for foreign college and university students studying in the United States and for U.S. students preparing to study abroad. The marriage of theory and practice in addressing the two major issues of: (1) lack of agreement on standards for orientation; and (2) the common lack of student motivation to attend orientation programs is stressed. Papers have the following titles and authors: "Survey of University Orientation Programs for International Students and Scholars" (Inge Steglitz); "The Development of Preacademic Training Programs for Incoming Fulbright Students, 1951-1969" (James E. O'Driscoll); "Brief Course on America: An Orientation to the Study of American Culture" (Harvey Sarles); "Foreign Student Orientation at the University of Pennsylvania" (Ann Kuhlman); "Orientation Services Provided for A.I.D.-Sponsored Participants in Programs Administered by Partners for International Education and Training" (Judith A. Cadman); "Cross-Cultural Half-Way Houses: Orientation within Intensive English Programs" (Patricia Byrd); "Training International Students as Teaching Assistants" (Mark Landa); "The Experiential Approach to International Student Orientation" (Dario Gamboa); "Survey of University Orientation for American Students Going Abroad" (Karen Rosenquist Watts); "Something for Everyone: A Search for Common Denominators" (Jan Felsing); "The Orientation Retreat: Preparing 200 Students for Study in 20 Countries" (Sue K. Clarke); "A Three-Tiered Approach to Cross-Cultural Orientation for U.S. Students Preparing to Study Abroad" (Joseph O. Baker); "Orientation Development Project at the Experiment in International Living" (Julie Soquet); "Cross-Cultural Training in the Peace Corps" (Roger Nicholson); "The Navy Overseas Duty Support Program: An Organizational Approach to Cross-Cultural Orientation" (Sandra Mumford Fowler); "Concepts and Theories of Culture Learning" (Josef A. Mestenhauser); and "Adding the Disciplines: From Theory to Relevant Practice" (Mestenhauser). (JB)

Leading African American scholars examine the often neglected cultural context in research and policy development in African American higher education in this collection of essays. Past research has most often been conducted by individuals unfamiliar with the historical and cultural considerations of specific ethnic groups. Therefore, the outcomes of research and the development of programs have been based on deficit models, that is, what is wrong with African Americans, or what they cannot achieve. The book examines the questions; what is the relationship between African Americans' culture and experiences, and how should their culture be integrated into research and practice? How do African Americans' intra- and interrelations differ in higher education? How does understanding African American culture as it relates to higher education research enhance policy-making and practice? What role do HBUCs play in African Americans' participation in higher education? What are the policy and practice implications of past and current research? Scholars and practitioners of education, culture, and race relations will find this collection informative and interesting.
