Jeanett Castellanos, Lee Jones, Laura I. Rendón: "The Majority in the Minority: Expanding the Representation of Latina/o Faculty, Administrators and Students in Higher Education"

"As a volume destined to be employed by researchers, practitioners and policy makers, "The Majority in the Minority" appears at the left time in our nation's demographic history. It connects us to the triumphs an tragedies of our Latino collective pasts and leads us to a more hopeful scenario for the future." -- from the Foreword by Laura Rendón Latinas/os are the largest ethnic minority groups in the U.S. They are propelling minority communities to majority status in states as disparate as California, Florida, New Jersey, New York and Texas. Their growth in the population at large is not reflected in higher education. In fact Latinos are the least represented population in our colleges and universities, whether as administrators, faculty or students; and as students have one of the highest levels of attrition. Opening access to Latinas/os, assuring their persistence as students in higher education, and their increased presence in college faculty and governance, is of paramount importance if they are to make essential economic gains and fully to participate in and contribute to American society. In this ground-breaking book, twenty-four Latina/o scholars provide an historical background; review issues of student access and achievement, and lessons learned; and present the problems of status and barriers faced by administrators and faculty. The book also includes narratives by graduate students, administrators and faculty that complement the essays and vividly bring these issues to life. This is a book that should be read by policy makers, college administrators, student affairs personnel and faculty concerned about shaping the future of higher education -- and constitutes an invaluable resource for all leaders of the Latino community.
