Mentoring While White: Culturally Responsive Practices for Sustaining the Lives of Black College Students
Sun, April 16, 9:50 to 11:20am CDT (9:50 to 11:20am CDT), Swissôtel Chicago, Floor: Event Centre, 1st Floor, Zurich ESession Type: Symposium
Abstract
The majority of full-time faculty in higher education are white. Presently, Black students are entering higher education at a much faster rate than previous years. Given the rise of Black college student enrollment and the halting, slow progress in diversifying faculty, it is increasingly important for white faculty to learn how to effectively mentor and sustain Black students, especially in light of the anti-Black histories and contexts of institutions of higher education in the United States.
