Recenzii

"Black Men in Higher Education is a clarion call to those of us in the academy to assume greater responsibility for Black men's success. [It] is a significant contribution to the student success literature in several notable respects. It is one of the few books that accounts for what happens to Black males at all the critical junctures of their educational journeys,… [and] it advances an institutional responsibility agenda. New theoretical concepts that can enhance our understanding of how institutional contexts and the interactions that take place within them influence student success for Black males are offered, as are strategies for recruiting and retaining them."
--From the Foreword by Frank Harris III, Associate Professor of Postsecondary Education and Co-Director of the Minority Male Community College Collaborative, San Diego State University
 
"Wood and Palmer are highly regarded experts on Black male student success in higher education – this book solidly reflects their expertise. Educators and institutional leaders who are committed to improving Black men’s college experiences and outcomes will find much guidance in this text."
--Shaun R. Harper, Executive Director, Center for the Study of Race and Equity in Education, University of Pennsylvania
