Miscellaneous Survey on African-American Male Graduate Students
Research conducted by Terrell Strayhorn (University of Tennessee) and Michael Cuyjet (University of Louisville):
"At the bottom of this note are directions to a website containing a survey that begins to explore climate issues for African American male graduate students and we would greatly appreciate your help in telling African American males currently enrolled in graduate school or recently graduated (within three years) at your institution and/or those who you may know at other schools about this survey and asking them to participate in it.
"If you are an African American male currently enrolled in a graduate program or someone who has completed a graduate program within the last three years, we would greatly appreciate you taking a few minutes to complete this survey and to suggest to any of your fellow students or recent graduates who are African American males that they do the same. If you are not a currently enrolled or recently graduated African American male graduate student, please forward a copy of this note to any colleagues, students, or acquaintances of yours who fit that description.
To access the survey, please go to:
