"I am pleased to see the work of Commodore, Baker, and Arroyo emerge as a major contribution to the scholarship on Black women collegians. This book is vitally important to the expansion of research that is forging a path toward greater attention and resources for Black women collegians."—From the Foreword by Lori D. Patton, Associate Professor, Higher Education and Student Affairs, Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis"This book casts a much needed spotlight on the often overlooked experiences of Black women in higher education. A thoughtful and thorough analysis of extant work lays the foundation for this book’s innovative individual and institutional models, designed to assist and support Black women as they navigate higher education. The sharp insight and deep care with which this work was undertaken positions this text as a go-to resource for faculty, students, scholars, and institutional leaders in the years to come."— Kimberly A. Griffin, Associate Professor, Student Affairs, University of Maryland"Black Women College Students offers a clarion call for a deeper, more nuanced focus on Black women’s college experiences that also connects these experiences to larger social issues such as racial, gendered, and class hierarchies. This thoughtful, thorough, and nuanced book will surely become an exemplar in how to do research with and support Black women in higher education." —Rachelle Winkle-Wagner, Associate Professor, Department of Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis, University of Wisconsin-Madison
