Abstract	The report is the second in a series geared to generating policy and focusing national attention on the participation of blacks in higher education. It explores the concept and practice of institutional diversification in the United States and the implications and benefits of diversity for blacks seeking postsecondary education. It is the committee's concern that predominantly black colleges be maintained rather than be merged into white institutions. The methods identified to maintain institutional diversity encompass many areas, including the needs to expand institutional options for students of differing abilities and socioeconomic levels, to insure institutional viability, and sustain educational environments historically responsive to particular racial and ethnic group needs. Possible state and federal policies are examined. Appended are lists of historically black colleges and newer predominantly black colleges, criteria for Carnegie classification of four-year institutions, and charts outlining federal financial obligations to historically black colleges (organized according to federal agency). A list of references is included. (MSE)
