Community College: Teaching the Diamond in the Rough
from (Re)Teach · host Bruce Hoskins, PhD
I interview Shawntae Mitchum, a former student of mine, about her Master's thesis regarding the experiences of black faculty who teach at community colleges. We explore why there is very little student equity research regarding community colleges even though this system, by far, has a larger number of black and brown students than the two other systems combined. We end by focusing on what it means to teach the diamonds in the rough and how this is the very essence of equity-minded research and practices.
