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.
Terence Hicks is a tenured associate professor of research in the Department of Educational Leadership at Fayetteville State University. He was among a selected group of research scholars invited by the Center for African-American Research & Policy (CAARP) to participate in a special session related to the "Black in America: CNN Documentary."
Abul Pitre is the former Carter G. Woodson Professor of Education at Edinboro University of Pennsylvania. Currently, he is the Chairperson of Leadership Studies at North Carolina A& T State University. Dr. Pitre is the author of several articles and books, most notably on the educational philosophy of Elijah Muhammad and Malcolm X.
