Examining Educational InequalitiesCenter for Continuing Education, McKenna Hall

 

Unequal opportunities and outcomes have been a persistent feature of the American educational system.  Despite great progress, tremendous challenges remain.  "Examining Educational Inequality" will feature several prominent scholars in the field of education who will present cutting edge research on several crucial dimensions of educational inequality.  Each of the studies pay special attention to class and racial/ethnic inequalities in the educational system.  In addition, much of the research presented will have direct implications for educational policies designed to promote equity in America's schools.  The conference will also feature numerous opportunities for conference participants to debate the direction of future research on educational inequality, and reflect upon how research can guide local and national reform efforts.   Examining Educational Inequalities

Race, Inequality, and American Education

 

 

 

POST-CONFERENCE UPDATE (4/7/03)

The "Race, Inequality, and American Education" conference was a tremendous success! Our invited speakers presented four wonderful papers, and they had many lively and informative exchanges with our audience.

 

CONFERENCE THEME

At the dawn of the twentieth century, W.E.B. Dubois argued, "The problem of the twentieth century is the problem of the color line." One hundred years later, we can identify both tremendous progress and persisting challenges in ameliorating racial inequality in American society. Given the crucial role that education plays in determining socio-economic success in American society, the American educational system has been the arena where many important struggles for racial inequality have unfolded over the course of the last century. The "Race, Inequality, and American Education" conference at the University of Notre Dame will bring together five renowned scholars in the area of race and education to (1) analyze the causes and consequences of racial inequality in education, (2) evaluate policies designed to alleviate such inequalities, and (3) propose new strategies designed to eradicate this pressing social problem.
