Biracial Students' Sense of Belonging at a Predominantly White Southeastern State Flagship University
McConnell, Nicole
ProQuest LLC, Ed.D. Dissertation, University of Georgia
This study examined how biracial students at a predominantly White southeastern state flagship university described their experiences. Participants narrated their experiences on a university campus about how the university impacted their ability to find a sense of belonging on campus and the role the university played. The purpose of this phenomenological qualitative study was to describe what experiences, if any, affected a biracial student's perception of sense of belonging at a southeastern state flagship university. Findings from this study could help researchers and practitioners understand how to identify factors that may contribute to biracial students' perceived feelings of belonging at predominantly White institutions (PWI).
