Multicultural Teaching: African-American Faculty Classroom Teaching Experiences in Predominantly White Colleges and Universities

Explored classroom teaching challenges faced by African American faculty at a predominantly white college. Focus group interviews with black faculty indicated that the teachers believed white students felt their standards were too high and did not match white professors' expectations. They said that persistent student complaints and harassment interfered with their teaching, which affected their morale. (SM)
