Book Review: Critical Whiteness Praxis in Higher Education

Considerations for the Pursuit of Racial Justice on Campus

From Volume 51 Number 1 | October–December 2022

Abstract: Critical Whiteness Praxis in Higher Education: Considerations for the Pursuit of Racial Justice on Campus
Edited by Zak Foste and Tenisha L. Tevis
Stylus Publishing: Sterling, VA: 2022
289 pages
ISBN: 978-1642672695

College and university administrators are increasingly called to confront the deeply entrenched racial inequities in higher education. To do so, corresponding attention must be given to historical and contemporary manifestations of whiteness in higher education and student affairs. In reviewing Critical Whiteness Praxis in Higher Education: Considerations for the Pursuit of Racial Justice on Campus, Paul A. Dale, EdD, suggests those who read the book will more fully acknowledge the impact of whiteness on organizational structure, colleagues, and students and their experience.

Social Mobility and the Graduation Rate Paradox

Can You Advance One and Avoid the Other?

By using a metric-based planning framework, researchers at the University of Texas at El Paso identified areas for institutional intervention to enhance social mobility outcomes.

From Volume 51 Number 1 | October–December 2022

Abstract: Social mobility is an emerging area of focus for higher education institutions. In recent years, we have seen a proliferation of measures related to social mobility produced by publishers, scholars, think tanks, and foundations. However, it is still unclear which social mobility measures to advance, or when to intervene to improve social mobility outcomes. We rely on a century of literature from economics, sociology, and policy analysis to identify an appropriate framework to understand higher education’s contribution to social mobility. Using the metric-based planning framework, we identify areas for institutional intervention to enhance social mobility outcomes.

Reckoning with Entangled Histories

Higher Education and Slavery

In this symposium, four institutions will share their approaches to these complicated questions and how they’re continuing the conversation around the legacy of slavery on their campuses.
Abstract: American higher education institutions have a long, complex history with slavery that shouldn’t be ignored. Reckoning with these historical ties—from slave-owning namesakes to the enslaved laborers who constructed campus buildings—generates difficult questions for colleges and universities:
  • How do we honor those who were enslaved?
  • How do we recognize our role in the history of slavery as a means of learning from the past to guide our future?
In this symposium, four institutions will share their approaches to these complicated questions and how they’re continuing the conversation around the legacy of slavery on their campuses.
