Black students and the cafeteria-what's the big fuss? -- Who's really self-segregating? sororities, fraternities, and religious groups -- Is class-based affirmative action the answer? -- Why affirmative action is good for Asian Americans -- Why the SAT and SAT Prep fall short -- The problem of the "problem of mismatch"? -- How then should we think? A conclusion.
Race on Campus argues that there are pervasive and stubborn "myths" about diversity on college and university campuses, and that these myths obscure the notable significance and effects that diversity has already had on campus life.--Provided by publisher.
