Solorzano, Daniel; Villalpando, Octavio; Oseguera, Leticia
Journal of Hispanic Higher Education, v4 n3 p272-294 Jul 2005
Using critical race theory (CRT) as a framework, the authors analyze the educational inequities and racialized barriers faced by Latina/o college students when navigating the educational pipeline leading to a college degree. The impact of racialized structures, policies, and practices is examined in the context of how they influence the educational attainment and academic progress of Latinas/os. The article concludes by offering CRT-based policy and practical approaches to enhancing the success of Latina/o college students.
