The theme of this year's Conference is "Mainstreaming Blacks: Precedents, Problems and Procedures." NAFEO, founded in 1969, is a nonprofit, voluntary, independent association of 107 historically and predominantly black colleges and university enrolling some 200,000 students. The purpose of our organization is to articulate the need for a higher education system where race, income, and previous education are not determinants of either the quality of quantity of higher education. NAFEO's Annual Conference is the most important national meeting in America for the discussion of issues affecting Blacks in Higher Education. Each year, hundreds of representatives from academia, Federal and state agencies, private industry, non-profit agencies, and many national foundations and philanthropic organizations meet in Washington to develop new strategies for increasing and enhancing the opportunities for Blacks in Higher Education. As an exhibitor, you will have the opportunity to show this audience of influential representatives from every sector of America the accomplishments of your organization or agency in the area of higher education, and share new areas of potential involvement. Last year, over 1,700 persons attended the Conference and visited the exhibits. Your exhibition will allow you to have direct access to hundreds of decision makers, thus providing you the opportunity to enhance your public image, and increase minority recruitment. Registration will be held in the Exhibition Hall making the potential benefit in terms of advertisement and assured interaction well worth your immediate consideration. We are inviting you to become a part of this exciting event by exhibiting at our Conference. The enclosed materials and contract describe the details of our exhibition. Should you require any additional information, please contact our Exhibits Manager. Sincerely, Samuel L. Myers Samuel L. Myers Executive Director 21
