Students and Institutions Protecting Whiteness as Property: A Critical Race Theory Analysis of Student Affairs Preparation
-
Stephanie Bondi
Abstract
This study is based on interviews with White students graduating from a student affairs preparation program as well as a literature review of whiteness in education. Applying critical race theory, the author examined the ways that students and institutions protected whiteness. Institutions and those within them concerned with equity must have awareness of whiteness and rework curriculum, pedagogy, polices, and practices to fracture educational hegemony of whiteness.
