Engaging in the Margins: Exploring Differences in Biracial Students' Engagement by Racial Heritage
Harris, Jessica C.; BrckaLorenz, Allison; Nelson Laird, Thomas F.
Journal of Student Affairs Research and Practice, v55 n2 p137-154 2018
The research presented in this article utilizes data from four years of the National Survey of Student Engagement to shed light on the biracial student population and their engagement practices in postsecondary contexts. Specifically, this study explored the ways in which biracial students with different racial heritages engage differently from one another and from their monoracial peers on campus. Study findings complicate the ideology that biracial individuals are a monolithic group, fostering a conversation concerning multiraciality in higher education and providing critical implications for future research and practice.
