Through oral histories and archival material, this text documents  and reflects on their experiences in the racially isolated, northern, rural  towns in Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, and Western Pennsylvania. This history  illuminates both the empowerment of these collegians and the persistent  challenges of enacting institutional values in the face of resistance from  both outside and within. Stewart seeks to understand the nature of progress  toward pluralistic diversity in college environments characterized by the  paradox of racial homogeneity and interracial engagement. In this way, the  complex interplay of social movements, institutional context, individual  identities, and the experiences of marginalized students in postsecondary  education are more effectively demonstrated. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2017-04-24\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781137590763\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1057\/978-1-137-59077-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 277\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Palgrave Macmillan US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44753330143372,"sku":"9781137590763","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781137590763.jpg?v=1775963478","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781137590763","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
