Neoliberalizing Diversity in Liberal Arts College Life: Higher Education in Critical Perspective: Practices and Policies

Autor Bonnie Urciuoli
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 10 feb 2022
As neoliberalism has expanded from corporations to higher education, the notion of "diversity" is increasingly seen as the contribution of individuals to an organization. By focusing on one liberal arts college, author Bonnie Urciuoli shows how schools market themselves as "diverse" communities to which all members contribute. She explores how students of color are recruited, how their lives are institutionally organized, and how they provide the faces, numbers, and stories that represent schools as diverse. In doing so, she finds that unlike students' routine experiences of racism or other social differences, neoliberal diversity is mainly about improving schools' images.
