Críticas

"When we asked students if we leave our gender, race, social class, religion, nationality, age, sexual orientation, and physical disability at the classroom door and enter the classroom simply as students, most student essayists responded emphatically. They asserted-- sometimes with regret--that cultural identities make a difference in university life. Their essays indicate that many of them were aware of themselves as individuals with distinct social identities as early as elementary school."--The Broad Minds Collective, from "Ourselves as Students" "When we asked students if we leave our gender, race, social class, religion, nationality, age, sexual orientation, and physical disability at the classroom door and enter the classroom simply as students, most student essayists responded emphatically.

Reseña del editor

These essays by Old Dominion University students deal with two questions: what impact do their own race, class, gender and ethnic identities have upon them as students, and how do their culture and the university culture interact to affect their ability to learn?
