Preferred term

multiracial student issues in colleges and universities  

Definition

  • Colleges and universities give multiracial students the space and time needed to consider or reconsider issues of race, identity, and racial classification. Changes in institutional reporting requirements in recent years have made it possible for students to mark more than one race in describing themselves, which contributes visibility and validation to students identifying as multiracial.
