Synopsis "Accountability and Opportunity in Higher Education: The Civil Rights Dimension"

In Accountability and Opportunity in Higher Education, leading scholars address the unforeseen impact of accountability standards on students of color and the institutions that disproportionately serve them. The book describes how federal policies can worsen existing racial inequalities in higher education and offers alternative solutions aimed to protect and advance civil rights for low-income and minority students and their colleges. This volume begins with a chapter putting higher education accountability in historical perspective and connecting it to the increasing importance of postsecondary education for upward mobility, coupled with rising barriers to minority student access and success. Based on a series of studies using cutting-edge research methodologies, the contributors suggest new ways to design and evaluate accountability policies that avoid predictable negative consequences. Written against a backdrop of unequal opportunity and racial inequality in preparation for and access to higher education, Accountability and Opportunity in Higher Education arrives at a pivotal time in American education. Contributors Adriana Ruiz Alvarado Dominique J. Baker Daniel Corral Valerie Crespín-Trujillo Kevin Eagan Stella M. Flores Marybeth Gasman Sara Goldrick-Rab Jason Houle Sylvia Hurtado Willie Kirkland Thai-Huy Nguyen Anne-Marie Núñez Toby J. Park Awilda Rodríguez Andrés Castro Samayoa
