Addressing Educational Inequities for Latino Students: The Politics of "Forgetting"
Gandara, Patricia
Journal of Hispanic Higher Education, v4 n3 p295-313 Jul 2005

The university responded to the severe decline in minority enrollment by supporting "outreach" programs, such as Puente, but "forgot" its promise of support when state funds dried up.
