A group of three conference papers, all describing successful methods of preparing students for succeeding at the postsecondary level, is presented in this document. The first paper, "Educational Pathways that Promote Student Success at the Postsecondary Level" (Lester W. Jones), discusses a program established at Xavier University--a small, black, Catholic school in Southern Louisiana--in association with the surrounding high schools to increase the number of blacks excelling in academics. The second paper, "Teaching and Learning: Non-Negotiable Components at the Postsecondary Level" (Shirley Thornton), discusses, from the principal's perspective, educational improvement at Balboa High School in San Francisco, California, achieved through collaboration with San Francisco City College and San Francisco State. The third paper, "Dividends Derived from Structured Intervention at the Postsecondary Level" (Ed C. Apodaca), evaluates the University of California's efforts to increase the number of minority and low-income students through the Early Outreach Program, an academic and motivational intervention program at the junior and senior high school levels. This program has been successful: since the program was initiated in 1985, the number of eligible entering underrepresented students has increased annually. (BJV)
