HARVARD GAZETTE ARCHIVES

Harvard began this program in 1979 to address the needs of South Africans who were denied access to advanced education because of apartheid. It is still intended for those South Africans who were educationally disadvantaged by past law and resource allocation. It provides educational enrichment for men and women in midcareer. Since its inception, more than 150 South Africans have studied at Harvard under the program. These South Africans, who had already shown considerable skill in their chosen fields before coming to Harvard, have assumed leadership positions when they returned home.
