- Today more and more ethnically, culturally, and linguistically diverse students enroll in our college and university courses.

How can faculty help them succeed? For faculty in all disciplines seeking answers to these questions, this is an essential book. This text provides practical advice on how to assist these students with academic tasks and how to help them to succeed in the academy.
