Book Synopsis Racial Identity Attitudes of Black Students and Academic Persistence at a Predominantly White University by : Deejon Bradby
Download or read book Racial Identity Attitudes of Black Students and Academic Persistence at a Predominantly White University written by Deejon Bradby and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black students enrolled at predominantly White colleges and universities have disproportionately high attrition rates. Although several studies have explored the issue of Black students' academic persistence in colleges and universities, there is little agreement as to (a) the factors that influence academic persistence or (b) the definition of academic persistence of Black college students. Moreover, the majority of these studies have ignored the possible significance of the students' status as a racial minority on their adjustment to college. Instead, the major focus of these studies has been the relative influence on academic persistence of cognitive or noncognitive factors other than race-related status. In the present study, Black students' racial identity attitudes (Preencounter, Encounter, Immersion-Emersion, and Internalization) were used to examine the extent to which they contributed to the prediction of academic persistence (defined as intent to drop-out, college grade point average and academic statuses) at a predominantly White university beyond what was predicted by the students' gender and tradititional precollegiate adademic or cognitive information (high school grade point averages and SAT scores). The current study addressed a question extant in existing literature: the extent to which traditional precollegiate cognitive factors and noncognitive factors (racial identity attitudes) predict academic persistence of Black students at a predominantly White university.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reports findings from the National Study of Black College Students, a comprehensive study of Black college students' characteristics, experiences, and achievements as related to student background, institutional context, and interpersonal relationships. Over 4,000 undergraduates and graduate/professional students on sixteen campuses (eight historically Black and eight predominantly White) participated in this mail survey. Using these and other data, this book systematically examines the current state of Black students in U.S. higher education. Until now, our understanding has been limited by inadequate data, misguided theories, and failure to properly interpret the Black American reality. This volume challenges our assumptions and contributes to the growing body of knowledge about Black student experiences and outcomes in higher education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together leading experts from different disciplines to offer new perspectives on contemporary African American families. A wealth of knowledge is presented on the heterogeneity of Black family life today; the challenges and opportunities facing parents, children, and communities; and the impact on health and development of key cultural and social processes. Comprehensive and authoritative, the book critically evaluates current policies and service delivery models and sets forth cogent recommendations for supporting families' strengths. Following an overview that traces the ongoing evolution of theory and research in the field, the book examines how African American families fare on numerous indicators of well-being. Throughout, contributors identify factors that promote or hinder healthy child and family development, writing from a culturally sensitive, nonpathologizing stance. The concluding chapter provides an up-to-date framework for culturally competent mental health practice.

Book excerpt: Abstract: The premise of this study was to explore the recollections of the experiences of African American graduates from a predominately White university and to understand how these experiences shaped them within the context of their professional and personal lives. Using a qualitative research design, this study uses Critical Race Theory, an emerging theoretical framework in the field of education to better understand the stories and cultural life worlds of the minority college student. Through in depth interviews the study draws from Sarah Willie's work, Acting Black (2003) as a starting point to understand what the researcher defined as The New Talented Tenth, a term coined by the great intellectual African American, W.E.B. DuBois in an effort to illustrate the responsibilities of the gifted of the race in regard to those who were unable to obtain a higher education. The major findings of the study were: African American students create a separate community with internal cliques. They transmit values to new members, however, the extent of this acceptance of values changes. They do not view the need for this community as one of protection from hostility on campus; rather, the community perpetuates itself for social and emotional purposes. The very nature of racial identifiability, all African American students who do not consciously choose to self-exclude from this community are a part of it, even if they see themselves as outsiders. African American students are dealing with tension between maintaining Africentric values of cooperation and collaboration while adopting more Eurocentric values of competition and individualism. The leadership of a African American president at a predominately White university greatly changed the perceptions of success for African American students on campus as well as the climate. Thus, his death retarded the development of diversity and inclusion and changed the campus climate forcing African American students to adopt new ways of coping on the campus. Implications, and recommendations for educators in developing praxis while opening dialogue and advancing knowledge in the area of the African American college experience were all drawn from the findings of this study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the eighteenth and mid-twentieth centuries, countless African Americans passed as white, leaving behind families and friends, roots and community. It was, as Allyson Hobbs writes, a chosen exile, a separation from one racial identity and the leap into another. This revelatory history of passing explores the possibilities and challenges that racial indeterminacy presented to men and women living in a country obsessed with racial distinctions. It also tells a tale of loss. As racial relations in America have evolved so has the significance of passing. To pass as white in the antebellum South was to escape the shackles of slavery. After emancipation, many African Americans came to regard passing as a form of betrayal, a selling of one’s birthright. When the initially hopeful period of Reconstruction proved short-lived, passing became an opportunity to defy Jim Crow and strike out on one’s own. Although black Americans who adopted white identities reaped benefits of expanded opportunity and mobility, Hobbs helps us to recognize and understand the grief, loneliness, and isolation that accompanied—and often outweighed—these rewards. By the dawning of the civil rights era, more and more racially mixed Americans felt the loss of kin and community was too much to bear, that it was time to “pass out” and embrace a black identity. Although recent decades have witnessed an increasingly multiracial society and a growing acceptance of hybridity, the problem of race and identity remains at the center of public debate and emotionally fraught personal decisions.

Book Synopsis How Does Racial Identity Affect African American College Students' Ability to Assimilate on Predominantly White College Campuses and Its Impact on Retention by : Janette Howard
Download or read book How Does Racial Identity Affect African American College Students' Ability to Assimilate on Predominantly White College Campuses and Its Impact on Retention written by Janette Howard and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this mixed-methods study was to determine how racial identity of African American college students can impact their ability to assimilate on predominately White college campuses to the point of hindering their retention. This study was a sequential explanatory mixed method study. Phase one of the study was a quantitative survey consisting of 25 questions that was completed by N=125 African American students attending a Predominately White University in the Mid-West. Phase two of the study was a convenience sample of thirteen African American students living on and off campus. The following research questions were addressed to explore the research topic. (1) How does racial identity impact African American college students' ability to assimilate at a predominately White university with a high enrollment of African American college students? (2) How do African American college students perceive their college/university's commitment to them? (3) How do African American college students perceive their racial identity impacting their lives? The findings of the study showed that the complexities of racism and stereotypical perceptions made the process of assimilating into the college environment holistic, including social, academic, internal and external variables that impacted their ability to assimilate and form relationships needed to have a well-rounded college experience. However, many of the students interviewed felt some of the stereotypical perceptions are sometimes perpetuated by the actions of their Black peers. During a few of the interviews, students (N=7) described their dismay with the behavior that some of their peers exhibited. The participants that were interviewed felt that the students' success should be a shared responsibility. It should be up to the students to be accountable; one participant stated "too often people want to blame others for things that happen to them." Furthermore, he explained that he takes full responsibility for the 2.0 grade point he had at the end of the last semester, but he is now looking at a 3.2 for this semester. Many of the students expressed that they did feel the faculty and staff ratio could be more representative of the African American population. The students also felt the administration could do more to bring the students together as a whole, the students of color and the White students. The consensus of the interviews was that Black people as a whole, in the eyes of the boarder society, are not respected nor looked at as assets. Many of the students interviewed felt that if the Black students and the White students had more opportunities to engage outside of the classroom, they may see Blacks beyond the stereotypical perceptions.
