Conway, Patrick Filipe – Review of Higher Education, 2023
A primary focus within the field of higher education in prison is to ensure that federal, state, and institution-level polices helping to develop and sustain programs remain durable.

Garces, Liliana M.; Ambriz, Evelyn; Davis Johnson, Brianna; Bradley, Dwuana – Review of Higher Education, 2022
The spike of hate speech incidents on college campuses since the 2016 U.S. presidential election has compounded the racial hostility students of color face on historically White campuses.

Barringer, Sondra N.; Pryor, Kim Nelson – Review of Higher Education, 2022
Though understudied, academic structure reflects and shapes the central work--education, research, service--of higher education organizations (HEOs). Academic structure also shapes and illuminates the external environments and internal dynamics of HEOs. Despite the centrality of academic structure to HEOs and their work, our knowledge of it is…

It has become increasingly difficult for the two major parties in Congress to reach agreement on major higher education legislation.

Although diverse patterns of college enrollment have gained attention in recent years, few studies have looked at students who take courses at four-year and two-year colleges simultaneously.
