Chapters highlight personal accounts of poverty, violence, and bullying in childhood, the persistence of racism on the university campus and the inability of faculty and administrators to combat it. Overcoming all-too-common barriers, these eleven students persevered, earned their degrees and continued on to graduate school and professional careers. The authors conclude the book with policy proposals that not only address the issues raised by the students, but that would also restore public education to its original role as an engine of opportunity and driver of democracy. | 出版日期 | Book 2022 | 关键词 | public universities; higher education; Varsity Blues scandal; campus climate; wealth gap; Nevada | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-05646-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-05648-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-05646-8 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
