Summary:

"This important book focuses on the challenges faced by Minority Serving Institutions and provides practical pathways for further research and institutional improvement. From performance-based funding, to issues of being dually designated MSIs, to articulation agreements with community colleges to college readiness, the chapter authors tackle the most important topics in higher education by exploring these varied topics through the lens of MSIs. Educational Challenges at Minority Serving Institutions offers compelling questions for further consideration that practitioners at MSIs can use in their strategic planning to shape the future of Minority Serving Institutions" -- Provided by publisher.
