Campus Diversity

The Chronicle of Higher Education features faculty associate Thomas J. Espenshade in an article on diversity in higher education, New Research Complicates Discussions of Campus Diversity—in a Good Way. The piece reviews the latest studies, including a new book by Espenshade and Walton, No Longer Separate, Not Yet Equal; Race and Class in Elite College Admission and Campus Life, and quotes Espenshade as noting that "Diversity work does not begin or end with the admission office."
