NET Journal 233 | Black and White Together?

This program studies Atlantic Citys Project WILL in the larger context of secondary school education in America today. The project, backed by $100,000 in Title I funds, was set up for two six-week periods at the Hotel Traymore on the boardwalk at Atlantic City.

Here, some 80 students, black and white, engaged in a process of living and learning. Each of the students checked into the hotel daily after attending regular high school classes. The goals of the project: an effort to remove students from the totality of their environment; to foster interracial understanding and learning skills in a relaxed, though structured, atmosphere.
