REPRESENTATIVES OF BOSTON-AREA COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES MEET WITH
PUBLIC SCHOOL OFFICIALS TO DISCUSS NEW DIRECTIONS IN "PAIRING" ACTIVITIES.
(Boston, Mass.) — Representatives of Boston public schools
and Boston-area colleges and universities met Wednesday at Boston
University to plan new directions and activities under the 1975
"pairing" agreement established to upgrade the quality of Boston
public education.
The gathering, prompted by the announcement of the Boston
Compact, was presided over by Dr. John R. Silber, president of
Boston University and chairman of the Presidents' Steering Committee,
the group of college and university presidents and campus coordinators
whose institutions are paired with city schools.
The Boston Compact, announced Sept. 22 by School Superintendent
Robert Spillane, is an agreement among educational, civic, and
business leaders to improve the performance of the public school
system and foster hiring of the system's graduates. The Compact
designated 11 priority areas as work groups for city and higher
educational personnel. These priorities range from basic skills to
computer literacy, and from the arts to athletics.
