There is considerable literature documenting the need to diversify leadership in higher education. When data tracking diversity is reported, representation is most often given in binary terms such as people of color versus White population. Although diversity has recently increased at colleges and universities, senior leadership remains…

Transracial Asian American adoptee collegians, who for the purposes of this study are Asian Americans raised in and by White adoptive families, are largely absent within college student development and higher education research. Much of the literature on Asian American racial identity referenced in higher education foregrounds familial, ethnic,…

The authors aim to hypothesize that the direct and indirect effects would vary by race/ethnicity. Design/methodology/approach: Participants were 1,872 incoming…

Conceptualizing and measuring trends in segregation in higher education is difficult as both vertical and horizontal sorting is prevalent and patterns vary across racial groups. In this paper, we measure various trends in racial segregation in California for 20 years. We find significant sorting by race both between and within sectors of higher…
