The committee con- sisted of teachers, students, administrators, parents and community members. This group was responsi- ble for planning activities throughout the year to promote integration. Some of the activities that were included in achieving integration were stu- dent rap and orientation groups. These programs allowed students to ask questions and talk about their concerns. Every student enrolled in a Social Studies class had ten hours of Race Human Rela- tions instruction. The UCHS staff also participat- ed in several workshops on the subject. Through these many activities the Race Human Relations committee has set up, it is hoped that students may begin to realize that similarities and differences occur in individuals, not in groups. Olivia Warner, Sam Wong and Pat Smith discuss the Race Human Relations program. Page sponsored by Nancy White. Race Human Relations 147
