Beskrivning

This book offers context, research, policy, and practice-based recommendations centering college access and success for a historically overlooked population: rural Students and Communities of Color.Through an exploration of how colleges and universities can effectively welcome students from rural areas who identify as Asian and Pacific Islander, Black and African American, Hispanic and Latinx, and/or Indigenous, this text challenges the misleading narrative that rural is white, thereby placing these students and their communities in conversation with national higher education discourse. Rich contributions on scholarship, practice, and policy address the intersection of racism and spatial inequities and consider the unique opportunities and challenges that rural Students and Communities of Color face across the United States’ higher education landscape. Chapters provide direction on creating equitable policies and practices, as well as details of the assets, resources, and networks that support this population’s success.This edited collection provides a wealth of insight into the recruitment, access, persistence, and retention of rural Students of Color, equipping higher education researchers, practitioners, administrators, and policymakers with the knowledge they need to better account for and support rural students and communities across race and ethnicity.

"Race and Rurality: Considerations for Advancing Higher Education Equity is a perfectly timed book highlighting areas of need in our rural communities. Seeking to significantly change the narrative of monolithic rural communities and spotlight the unique opportunities and challenges of rural students of Color, this book is an essential read for policymakers and leaders of higher education institutions."Allen Pratt, Executive Director of the National Rural Education Association, USA"This book is a breath of fresh air for practitioners and researchers who are interested in the sustainability of rural communities. Although this book is about rural students’ college access and success, the long-term outcomes of rural students are paramount to rural communities’ ability to thrive. Debunking the myth that rural equals white, the authors center the voices of rural Students of Color and the opportunities and challenges they face in receiving equitable educational opportunity."Sheneka Williams, Professor of Educational Administration at Michigan State University, USA
