Book excerpt: Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs)—specifically Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs), Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs), and Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs)—have carved out a unique niche in the nation, serving the needs of low-income, underrepresented students of color.

Book Synopsis New Directions for Higher Education, Minority-Serving Institutions by : Jamie P. Merisotis
Download or read book New Directions for Higher Education, Minority-Serving Institutions written by Jamie P. Merisotis and published by Jossey-Bass. This book was released on 1998-07-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Minority-serving institutions share a common mission to educate the growing number of racial- and ethnic-minority American students, most often within their own communities. The stated missions of these schools address the issues that form a well-recited litany of the failures that characterize many mainstream institutions in their attempts to educate minorities. Recognizing that mainstream institutions were built for nonminority populations, minority-serving institutions have attempted to structure and organize educational experiences for students within their own social and cultural contexts. These institutions--including historically black colleges and universities, tribal colleges, and Hispanic-serving institutions--have unique histories, purposes, and operating structures. Despite these differences, minority-serving institutions share many common goals in educating underserved populations. These goals make it important to understand the shared visions and missions as they build for the future. This volume serves as a primer on the growing group of minority-serving institutions, with the goal of educating leaders at mainstream institutions, analysts, and those at minority-serving institutions themselves about their distinct purposes and common goals. An increased understanding of minority-serving institutions and their roles in educating underserved populations is important as the nation's demographic profile becomes increasingly diverse. This is the 102nd issue of the quarterly journal New Directions for Higher Education.

This book was released on 2021-12-29 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the unique experiences of student affairs professionals at Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs) in the US.

Book Synopsis Programs for Minority-Serving Institutions (Msis) Under the Higher Education ACT (Hea) by : Congressional Research Service
Download or read book Programs for Minority-Serving Institutions (Msis) Under the Higher Education ACT (Hea) written by Congressional Research Service and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-01-15 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Minority-serving institutions (MSIs) are institutions of higher education that serve high concentrations of minority students who, historically, have been underrepresented in higher education. Many MSIs have faced challenges in securing adequate financial support, thus affecting their ability to develop and enhance their academic offerings and ultimately serve their students. Federal higher education policy recognizes the importance of such institutions and targets financial resources to them. Funding for MSIs is channeled through numerous federal agencies, and several of these funding sources are available to MSIs through grant programs authorized under the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA; P.L. 89-329). Over the years, HEA programs that support MSIs have expanded and now include programs for institutions serving a wide variety of student populations. In FY2014, MSI programs under the HEA were appropriated approximately $780 million, which helped fund more than 940 grants to institutions.
Book Synopsis Hispanic-Serving Institutions by : Anne-Marie Nunez
Download or read book Hispanic-Serving Institutions written by Anne-Marie Nunez and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-02-11 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the increasing numbers of Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) and their importance in serving students who have historically been underserved in higher education, limited research has addressed the meaning of the growth of these institutions and its implications for higher education. Hispanic-Serving Institutions fills a critical gap in understanding the organizational behavior of institutions that serve large numbers of low-income, first-generation, and Latina/o students. Leading scholars on HSIs contribute chapters to this volume, exploring a wide array of topics, data sources, conceptual frameworks, and methodologies to examine HSIs’ institutional environments and organizational behavior. This cutting-edge volume explores how institutions can better serve their students and illustrates HSIs’ changing organizational dynamics, potentials, and contributions to American higher education.
Book Synopsis Teacher Education Across Minority-Serving Institutions by : Emery Petchauer
Download or read book Teacher Education Across Minority-Serving Institutions written by Emery Petchauer and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-21 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first of its kind, Teacher Education across Minority-Serving Institutions brings together innovative work from the family of institutions known as minority-serving institutions: Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Tribal Colleges and Universities, Hispanic Serving Institutions, and Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions. The book moves beyond a singular focus on teacher racial diversity that has characterized scholarship and policy work in this area. Instead, it pushes for scholars to consider that racial diversity in teacher education is not simply an end in itself but is, a means to accomplish other goals, such as developing justice-oriented and asset-based pedagogies.

This book was released on 2019-02-05 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are over 20 million young people of color in the United States whose representation in STEM education pathways and in the STEM workforce is still far below their numbers in the general population. Their participation could help re-establish the United States' preeminence in STEM innovation and productivity, while also increasing the number of well-educated STEM workers. There are nearly 700 minority-serving institutions (MSIs) that provide pathways to STEM educational success and workforce readiness for millions of students of colorâ€"and do so in a mission-driven and intentional manner. They vary substantially in their origins, missions, student demographics, and levels of institutional selectivity. But in general, their service to the nation provides a gateway to higher education and the workforce, particularly for underrepresented students of color and those from low-income and first-generation to college backgrounds. The challenge for the nation is how to capitalize on the unique strengths and attributes of these institutions and to equip them with the resources, exceptional faculty talent, and vital infrastructure needed to educate and train an increasingly critical portion of current and future generations of scientists, engineers, and health professionals. Minority Serving Institutions examines the nation's MSIs and identifies promising programs and effective strategies that have the highest potential return on investment for the nation by increasing the quantity and quality MSI STEM graduates. This study also provides critical information and perspective about the importance of MSIs to other stakeholders in the nation's system of higher education and the organizations that support them.

Download or read book Effective Leadership at Minority-Serving Institutions written by Robert T. Palmer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-28 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strong, effective, and innovative leadership is critical for institutions of higher education, especially for Minority-Serving Institutions (MSIs). Indeed, research and examples have shown leadership instability among some types of MSIs, while discussions and research on effective leadership for other MSIs is noticeably absent from the extant literature. In this volume, noted experts, researchers, and leaders discuss opportunities and challenges for leadership across the full range of MSIs, while creating a dialogue on leadership models and best practices. Chapters explore issues at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic Serving Institutions(HSIs), Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs), and Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs). This book helps higher education and student affairs scholars and administrators unpack contemporary leadership issues and strategies, and synthesizes best practices to help MSI leaders increase the effectiveness and sustainability of their institutions.

Download or read book Minority-serving institutions of higher education : developing partnerships to revitalize communities. written by Department of Housing and Urban Development, Washington, DC. Office of University Partnerships and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes some campus-community partnerships established by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). These partnerships between minority-serving institutions and their communities typically take place in small cities and in rural areas. In recent years, these areas have become home to large minority populations. The partnerships described are spearheaded by smaller schools, many of them community and technical colleges. In site of small size and limited budgets, these colleges and universities wield power in their communities that is rooted in a long history of involvement in local neighborhoods. This report celebrates the accomplishments of the minority-serving institutions that participate in four HUD grant programs: (1) the Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) program; (2) the Hispanic-Serving Institutions Assisting Communities program; (3) the Tribal Colleges and Universities program; and (4) the Alaska Native/Native Hawaiian Institutions Assisting Communities program. Following an introductory chapter, chapter 2 describes how the grant programs were organized and whom they serve. Chapter 3 offers a glimpse of the kind of work the 26 grantees and their community partners are carrying out to revitalize neighborhoods, assist businesses, bridge the digital divide, and provide social and supportive services and programs that help residents create a healthier present and ensure a brighter future. Appended are: (1) Map: Office of University Partnerships Grantees, 1994-2002; and (2) OUP (Office of University Partnerships) List of Grantees, 1994-2002. (SLD).
