Foreword The World and the American Teacher reflectsin a significant way the growing contribution of the American Association ofColleges for Teacher Education to the development ofa curriculum for prospective teachers which effectively represents the interpational relationshipsso much a part of today's world. Fortunately for the Association andfor the remaking of American teacher education, the interest and scholarlyefforts of Harold Taylor were sec ured to conduct the study whichis so well reported in this volume. Dr. Harold Taylor has long beenIn advocate of change and improve- ment in American education.Formerly president of Sarah Lawrence College, he has written and spoken eff:xtivelyregarding the problems facing higher ed ucation, including teachereducation. The Conferenceon World Education, held at Airlie House, Virginia,December 9-11, 1966, and reported by Dr. Taylor inan earlier publication of AACTE, was an integral part of a two-year effort represented bythe present volume. The study was instituted in 1965as a result of the efforts of the AACTE Committeeon International Relations and has been supported by a grant from the U.S. Office of Education, The Association'scommittee has provided general direction of the studyfrom its inception and appointed the National Advisory Committee which worked closelywith Dr. Taylor. The committec members include the following: H. KENNETH BARKER, Dean of the Collegeof Education and Dean of International Programs, University ofAkron. HENRY STEELE COMMAGER, Professor ofAmerican History, Amherst College. PETER GILLINGHAM, Executive Associate of Educationand World Affairs, Counsel f.0 the House of RepresentativesTask Force on the International Education Act. FRANCIS HAMBLIN, Chairman, InternationalRelations Commit- tee of the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education; presently Vice-President forAcademic Affairs, Northern Arizona University, Flagstaff, Arizona. FRANK KLASSEN, Associate Secretary ofthe American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education. BRIAN URQUHART, Office of the Secretary Generalof the United Nations. HARRIS WOFFORD, President, State Universityof New York in Old Westbury. AACTE commends its Committeeon International Relations, the members of the National Advisory Committee,Dr. Taylor and hisasso- ciates, and members of the AACTE staff who havebrought the study to completion. The results will be addedto other Association efforts to assist member institutions in improving theirprograms of instruction, the federal government in assessing and revising its internationalprograms, and the Association itself in determining future activitiesin international education. The views expressed in thisreport are those of Dr. Taylor and donot necessarily represent the position of AACTE.Dr. Taylor was encomaged from the beginning to conduct the study withoutrestrictions other than those imposed by hisown integrity as a scholar. Readers will undoubtedly find some viewpoints whichare controversial as well as those with which they strongly agree. It is the expectation ofAACTE that this study will be F rovocative and that it will push forward the improvementof teacher education by means ofmore effective consideration of world affairsas an integral part of every teacher'spreparation.

Christopher Brown II Associate Professor of Education Thesis Adviser Chair of Committee Robert M. Hendrickson Professor of Education Beverly Lindsay Professor of Education Mark Hill Assistant Professor of Sociology and Demography Roger L. Geiger Distinguished Professor of Education Head of the Department of Higher Education *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. ABSTRACT The study explores the mission of historically black colleges and universities from the perspectives of four-year presidents. Historically black colleges and universities (also known as HBCUs) identify institutions of higher education founded prior to 1964 for the purpose of educating African American students. Mission refers to the institutions’ explicit role, purpose, and function within the larger system of American higher education. The purpose of the study is to examine how presidents define and implement mission coupled with the task of identifying challenges that hinder mission implementation. The study, embedded in qualitative research methods, employs elite interviewing as the means of gathering data. Higher education’s core area of organization of governance serves as the foundation of the conceptual framework. A total of fifteen presidents participated in the study. The results show that although black colleges possess special qualities that help students succeed, their mission is not unique.
