• In Event: General Conference Roundtables
  In Roundtable: Table 15: College Success & Outcomes Roundtable 1

Abstract

Developmental Education (DE) research and reform efforts must center on equity issues, especially issues related to race and racism. The literature often acknowledges the overrepresentation of students of color in DE with limited examination. This roundtable will engage participants in a dialogue on DE with race placed at the forefront.
