Data Collection and Monitoring in an Educational RCT of a Postsecondary Access Program: Assessing Internal and External Validity
The objective of this article is to discuss the advantages of effective educational monitoring in the context of a longitudinal RCT. Intentional data collection and monitoring enables the important assessment of issues of both internal and external validity. We discuss how we used mixed methods data collection to reveal important changing contextual factors in an evaluation of a postsecondary access program in the U.S. state of Texas. Specificall…
The emergence and evolution of ambiguous ideas: An innovative application of social network analysis to support systematic literature reviews
Systematic literature reviews are attempts to understand conversations between researchers working to develop solutions to common problems. These conversations often stretch back decades and can involve the participation of dozens of authors. Traditional approaches to systematic reviews are ill-equipped to make sense of the sheer volume of relevant literature when exploring the emergence and evolution of ambiguous ideas across large knowledge com…
When class and race collapse: Theoretically Distinguishing Between College Students’ Intersectional Positions and Their Status Groups
In a longitudinal interview-based study of racial-minority students of low-income or working-class origin at an elite private university in the United States, we examine how class and race co-determine students' friendship-making patterns. We advance previous research in college students' friendship-making by applying a dual lens of intersectionality theory and sociological group-making. Using this lens, we find that class and race collapse into …
Referrals, Collaborative Actions, and Norm-Setting Practices: How College Access Programs Partner with High Schools
Purpose: Schoolwide college access programs are becoming increasingly ubiquitous in high schools across the country. Research on their effectiveness in improving college-going rates is inconclusive, prompting scholars to question how programs affect practices in schools. To better understand how schools and college access programs work in partnership to expand college advising resources, we study the practices of high schools partnered with a nat…
Multiracials’ membership and identification practices on campus: A boundary-work approach
Multiracial students are increasingly prominent in higher education research, and new critical theories of Multiraciality in education have emerged. In this area of research, personal identity is salient as an object of inquiry. Drawing from the sociology of ethnicity and migration, we propose an alternative approach to Multiracial students that attends to their agentive crossing and negotiation of boundaries, as they petition for membership in e…
Application essays and the ritual production of merit in US selective admissions
US colleges and universities are defined by their exclusivity, and the most prestigious schools reject most of those who apply. Yet these same schools also widely advertise their inclusiveness, encouraging students from all backgrounds to submit applications and highlighting evaluation protocols that identify many characteristics worthy of consideration for admission. We surface this paradox and use it as motivation to theorize a little studied c…
Signaled or Suppressed? How Gender Informs Women's Undergraduate Applications in Biology and Engineering
How does gender inform initial academic commitments and narrative self-presentation in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields during the college application process? Analyzing 60,000 undergraduate applications to the University of California, the authors surface two key findings. First, extant gender segregation of academic disciplines also manifests in intended major choice. Additionally, gender and SAT Math scores toget…
Assessment for Excellence: The Philosophy and Practice of Assessment and Evaluation in Higher Education
The second edition of Assessment for Excellence arrives as higher education enters a new era of the accountability movement. In the face of mandates such as results-based funding and outcomes-based accreditation, institutions and assessment specialists are feeling increasingly pressured to demonstrate accountability to external constituencies. The practice of assessment under these new accountability pressures takes on special significance for th…
Effects of Racial Diversity on Complex Thinking in College Students
Are experiment varying the racial (Black, White) and opinion composition in small-group discussions was conducted with college students (N = 357) at three universities to test for effects on the perceived novelty of group members' contributions to discussion and on participants' integrative complexity. Results showed that racial and opinion minorities were both perceived as contributing to novelty. Generally positive effects on integrative comple…
The Influence of Friendship Groups on Intellectual Self-Confidence and Educational Aspirations in College
In this study, the author examines the influence of college friendship groups on students' intellectual self-confidence and educational aspirations. Findings indicate that at the interpersonal level, the competing effects of relative deprivation and environmental press are present among white students. Racial diversity in the friendship group was found to have positive effects, but only for students of color

Diversity and the Influence of Friendship Groups in College
As we enter a new millennium, American higher education continues to experience rapid racial and ethnic diversification in the student body. De-mographic projections indicate that increasing ethnic and racial diversity will continue beyond the year 2000 (Justiz, 1994; Levine & Associates, 1989). On some campuses, the pace of demographic change has been nothing short of dramatic. At the University of California, for example, White students1 still …
Hey, Those Shoes Are Out of Uniform: African American Girls in an Elite High School and the Importance of Habitus
We examine how race and class influenced the lives of six African American high school seniors who attended a predominantly white, elite, independent secondary school. Race and class contributed to an organizational habitus of the school characterized by white and wealthy privilege. Interaction of that dominant habitus with the dissimilar individual habitus of the students resulted in a form of symbolic violence-symbolic violence the black studen…
