"Peeling Back the Layers": A Deeper Look at the Diversity among Black Students at Historically Black Colleges and Universities
Palmer, Robert T.; Williams, Janelle L.
Journal of Diversity in Higher Education, v16 n4 p447-456 Aug 2023
Using Celious and Oyserman's (2001) Heterogeneous Race Model as a conceptual framework, this article discusses how historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) helped participants to better appreciate the heterogeneity among Black students in Black colleges. This article also delineates how intraracial diversity among Black students at HBCUs led to some students feeling excluded from peer groups. This study concludes with implications for HBCU officials to help make the campus environment more inclusive for all students and considerations for future research.
