Abstract	This document is an issue of a journal "Linkages," that in general serves as a forum for exchanging information and ideas on issues relevant to three City University of New York (CUNY) programs. The programs are Search for Education, Elevation, and Knowledge (SEEK), College Discovery (CD), and College Discovery and Development Program (CDDP). This theme issue highlights the SEEK program and contains three articles describing creative experiments to enhance the academic integration of students in this program into the colleges they attend. The goal is to increase the chances that they will remain in college and graduate. The articles included in this volume are the following: (1) "The Take Advantage Now/Parent Education Project" (David Walters); (2) "The Effect of Coordinated Programming on the Academic Performance and Persistence of Underprepared College Students: A Longitudinal Study" (Frances Geteles); and (3) "Effectiveness of Peer Tutor/ Mentors for Disadvantaged Students at Brooklyn College: Preliminary Analyses" (Mary Oestereicher). The issue concludes with a description of some activities and publications of the Office of Special Programs. Biographical information on the contributors is presented. (VM)
