In higher education institutions across the world, rapid changes
are occurring as the socio-economic composition of these
universities is shifting. The participation of females, ethnic
minority groups, and low-income students has increased
exponentially, leading to major changes in student activities,

necessity for understanding the need of broader educational access
and promoting a newly empowered diverse population of students in
today's universities. Accessibility and Diversity in the 21st
Century University is a pivotal reference source that provides
vital research on the provision of higher educational access to a
more diverse population with a specific focus on the growing
population of women in the university, key intersections with race
and sexual preference, and the experiences of low-income students,
mid-career and reentry students, and special needs populations.

achievement gaps, and women's studies, this publication is ideally
designed for educators, higher education faculty, deans, provosts,
chancellors, policymakers, sociologists, anthropologists,
researchers, scholars, and students seeking current research on
modern advancements of diversity in higher education systems.
