Achieving a Multiracial Democracy on Campus
Glasper, Rufus
New Directions for Community Colleges, n162 p75-84 Sum 2013
The goal of multiracial equity is not just a phrase in mission statements, but a top-down strategic necessity for community colleges founded on and dedicated to the principles of social justice. At a system like Maricopa with more than 200,000 diverse credit and noncredit students at ten colleges--including six classified as urban--in the greater Phoenix area, it takes the entire institutional community to achieve such a goal.
