Recenzii
"Generally speaking, the book is an important addition to the growing number of recent texts on diversity in higher education. The book is fairly well organized, easy to follow, and written in a way that makes it accessible to a wide range of audiences."
—Educational Researcher
"Diversity in American Higher Education: Toward a More Comprehensive Approach is a multidimensional volume which addresses a number of issues including policies regarding the recruitment of diverse students and faculty and their experiences on college campuses." --Education Review
"Diversity in American Higher Education provides an insightful and comprehensive examination of the complex issues that confront academia today. It is an invaluable resource that should be a required reading for educators who seek to understand the many challenges that accompany our nation's growing diversity."
--Pedro A. Noguera, Executive Director, Metropolitan Center for Urban Education and Peter L. Agnew Professor of Education, New York University.
"This thoughtful, comprehensive, compelling book advances our longstanding national conversation about diversity and inclusion. A "Who’s Who" of leading scholars offers wide- ranging perspectives on the arc of diversity in higher education over time, across institutional contexts, and among different target groups.They bring "light and heat" to ongoing debates about the challenges and benefits of educational diversity on campus, asking how is diversity best defined, realized and experienced? A must read for serious scholars, students, and policy makers."
--Walter R. Allen, Allan Murray Cartter Professor of Higher Education and Distinguished Professor of Sociology, University of California, Los Angeles.
"Editors Lisa M. Stulberg, Sharon Lawner Weinberg, and their contributors do much to show how legal and institutional approaches to "diversity" shape policies and practices of schooling as well as the attitudes and actions of schools and the people associated with them. Their stated aim here is to make clear how conceptions of diversity – which shift with time and context – have real and important effects on institutions of higher education and on experiences in relation to them. They are, in many ways, successful in realizing this goal."—Teachers College Record
