| Abstract: | Using data from a national study of 13,499 faculty at 134 colleges and universities, this study explores the impact of faculty
of color on undergraduate education. This study finds compelling evidence to suggest that faculty of color do provide an important
contribution to undergraduate education in two ways. First, faculty of color employ a broader range of pedagogical techniques
and interact more frequently with students than their White counterparts. Second, greater structural diversity among faculty
leads to an increased use of effective educational practices. |
