Multicultural Undergraduate College Recruiting in the 21st Century
- Vern Hawkins (Iowa State University)
Abstract
With increasing antagonism towards "affirmative action" and rapidly changing cultural demographics throughout the country, colleges today and in the foreseeable future face formidable challenges in attracting and maintaining a culturally diverse undergraduate student population. This session will look at the changing cultural makeup of U.S. cities and suburbs and their schools, the legality of ethnically-oriented recruitment efforts, scholarships, and academic success programs, and the resources available to target specific cultural populations.
