Division J Vice Presidential Session: Beyond Affirmative Action: Exploring Strategies for Inclusive Higher Education

Sun, April 14, 11:25am to 12:55pm, Pennsylvania Convention Center, Floor: Level 100, Room 103C

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

This panel will bring together experts on college admissions to share both research- and practice-based perspectives on the evolving landscape of equity and inclusion in higher education. We explore the challenges and opportunities arising from a post-affirmative action world, emphasizing the importance of promoting inclusion and representation. Drawing on extant research and real-world examples, the session will illuminate potential admissions strategies like Holistic Review to ensure equitable access and diversity in colleges and universities. Our goal is to foster a constructive dialogue, encouraging collaboration among educators, researchers, and policymakers to create an enriching and supportive educational environment for all students, regardless of their background or ethnicity.
