Attitudes Toward Campus Diversity: Participation in a Racial or Cultural Awareness Workshop.
Springer, Leonard; And Others
Review of Higher Education, v20 n1 p53-68 Fall 1996
A study (n=1,060 students) found that white college students' sex and major were significantly related to precollege attitudes toward diversity on campus, and gender and major separately predicted participation in a racial or cultural awareness workshop. Father's education, family income, and degree aspiration were also considered as variables. Implications for action and for further research are discussed. (MSE)
