Approved as
amended by ED's 1/10/91 memorandum to OMB. Approval is granted for
one year, pending the reauthorization of the Higher Education Act
and the development of subsequent regulations for this program. ED
has indicated that such regulations will propose a definition of
"underrepresented in graduate education." For the next year, this
application shall indicate that successful grantees must provide
the definition they use for this term with their performance
report, in light of the statutory requirement that projects serve
underrepresented groups.
