Title: Student Movements for Multiculturalism
Description: "Beginning with the premise that a comprehensive understanding of American life involves confronting the issue of race, sociologist David Yamane explores efforts by students and others to address racism and racial inequality - to challenge the color line - in higher education. By 1991, nearly half of all colleges and universities in the United States had established a multicultural general education requirement. In Student Movements for Multiculturalism, Yamane examines how such requirements developed at the University of California at Berkeley and the University of Wisconsin at Madison during the late 1980s, when these two schools gained national attention in debates over the curriculum."--Jacket.
