Tunisian
Students
Visit NY
A group of 22 students major
ing in English at the University
of Tunis visited Harlem recent
ly to converse with American Ne
groes. In order to graduate as
teachers of English, they explain
ed, they are required by their
university to visit both Great
Britain and the United States,
using English to discuss signif-
cant Issues.
They interviewed Cyril D. Ty
son, Project Director of Harlem
Youth Opportunities Unlimited,
Inc., who pointed out that "the
Negro has become the occasion to
examine not only his own treat
ment but also whether white peo
ple treat other white people as
they should."
Harlem Youth Opportunities Un
limited, Inc., known as HARYOU,
was explained by Mr. Tyson as
a city and federal effort to study
the youth problems of Central
Harlem, in order to blueprint a
massive community action pro
gram for Harlem youth, employ
ing funds made available under
Public Law 087-274.
The students were brought to
Harlem by Mohamed Sethom, as
sistant professor of English at the
University of Tunis, who is es
pecially interested in the treat
ment of the American Negro in
the 20th century novel. Under a
student exchange, their visit is
sponsored by the Agency for In
ternational Development and the
U S. Department of Health, Edu
cation, and Welfare.
