Black Campus Life: The Worlds Black Students Make at a Historically White Institution (Suny Press Open Access)

Antar A. Tichavakunda

4.9/5 (9151 ratings)

Description:An in-depth ethnography of Black engineering students at a historically White institution, Black Campus Life examines the intersection of two crises, up close: the limited number of college graduates in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields, and the state of race relations in higher education. Antar Tichavakunda takes readers across campus, from study groups to parties and beyond as these students work hard, have fun, skip class, fundraise, and, at times, find themselves in tense racialized encounters. By consistently centering their perspectives and demonstrating how different campus communities, or social worlds, shape their experiences, Tichavakunda challenges assumptions about not only Black STEM majors but also Black students and the "racial climate" on college campuses more generally. Most fundamentally, Black Campus Life argues that Black collegians are more than the racism they endure. By studying and appreciating the everyday richness and complexity of their experiences, we all--faculty, administrators, parents, policymakers, and the broader public--might learn how to better support them.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
