The Common Experience of "Otherness:" Ethnic and Racial Minority Faculty.
Sadao, Kathleen C.; Johnsrud, Linda K.
Review of Higher Education, v21 n4 p315-42 Sum 1998
A study identified commonalities in the experiences of ethnic and racial minority faculty members at a predominantly white research university in Hawai'i. Despite the heterogeneity of minority faculty, common experiences include (1) the bicultural stance cultivated; (2) ethnocentrism perceived; (3) and discriminatory behavior experienced. The usefulness of race relations theories in helping to understand minority experiences is discussed. (Author/MSE)
