This first-year seminar will explore various aspects of the American higher education enterprise that shape and are shaped by the nation’s complex history of race and racism. We will read critical historical and theoretical discussions of race and racism and examine their implications for higher education access, opportunity, and attainment with particular emphasis on policies and practices in colleges and universities. We will focus on the implications of race and racism in higher education institutions and the wider society as they impact and influence key constituencies such as students, faculty, and administrators in higher education. We will examine some of the major historical and contemporary challenges and opportunities as they impact policies and practices, research and teaching, and the long-term impact on access, opportunities, and experiences of underrepresented racial/ethnic minorities.
