This groundbreaking book edited by Terence Hicks, a quantitative
research professor, and Abul Pitre, a qualitative research
professor, builds upon the usefulness of each research method and
integrates them by providing valuable findings on a diverse group
of college students. This book provides the reader with a mixture
of quantitative and qualitative research studies surrounding nine
chapters on African American, first-generation, undecided, and
non-traditional college students. Drawing from major quantitative
and qualitative theoretical research frameworks found in
multicultural education, Research Studies in Higher Education is a
must-read. The chapter authors provide important recommendations
for university administrators, faculty, and staff in supporting the
academic, personal, and social adjustment of college life for
African American, first-generation, undecided, and non-traditional
college students. The book contributes greatly to the research
literature regarding the role that educational leaders have in
educating multicultural college students.

In 2016, the University of Texas at Austin celebrated two important
milestones: the thirtieth anniversary of the Heman Sweatt Symposium
on Civil Rights and the sixtieth anniversary of the first black
undergraduate students to enter the university. These historic
moments aren't just special; they are relevant to current
conversations and experiences on college campuses across the
country. The story of integration at UT against the backdrop of the
Jim Crow South is complex and momentous-a story that necessitates
understanding and sharing. Likewise, this narrative is inextricably
linked to current conversations about students' negotiations of
identity and place in higher education.
