Writing Hispanic-Serving Institutions Into the History of Higher Education

• In Event: Teaching Us: Understanding Diverse Institutional Contexts and Otherness

Abstract

Hispanic-Serving Institutions achieved federal recognition thirty years ago, and they presently educate nearly one-third of U.S. undergraduates. Still, they remain largely excluded from teaching and scholarship on the history of higher education. This paper accentuates this glaring omission, characterizes it as a form of epistemic injustice, and presents teaching innovations for inclusion and epistemic justice.
