Divergent Paths to College

Race, Class, and Inequality in High Schools

• Gebundenes Buch

Examines how high schools structure different pathways that lead students to different college destinations based on race and class. Megan Holland finds that racial and class inequalities are reproduced through unequal access to sources of information, even among students in the same school and in schools with established college-going cultures.
