“…Since minority students continue to be underrepresented and underperform than their white counterparts in college contexts, this goal is equally relevant to higher education. Overall, black students earn only 10 percent of college degrees in the USA (Naylor et al , 2015). Hurtado and Ruiz (2012) demonstrated that the underrepresentation of students of color creates a negative campus climate for them.…”

“…The importance of recruiting and retaining faculty of color is discussed extensively in the growing lexicon of higher education. Although it can be argued that the dearth of Black faculty in CCJ, and other fields, could be a by-product of a failing school system for African Americans (Bidwell, 2015; Naylor et al, 2015), there is still much to be said regarding the creation of institutional cultures that are conducive to minority success (Piercy et al, 2005; Ruffins, 2002).

“…Black males in particular, still face an uphill battle to gain access to educational and professional opportunities (Naylor, Wyatt-Nichol, & Brown, 2015). Prior research shows that Black students and scholars experience pervasive challenges, ranging from outright discrimination to feelings of alienation and isolation which are exacerbated by unsupportive and noninclusive environments (Naylor et al, 2015). Ongoing racial disparities may foster adverse workplace cultures that can lead to discouragement and frustration (Lopez, 1997).…”

“…Not only do these institutions charge higher tuitions than public universities, but they also target low-income students and veterans. Moreover, they have the highest default rates and the lowest graduation rates when compared to private, nonprofit, and public institutions (Naylor, Wyatt-Nichol, & Brown, 2015).According to the Association of Private Sector Colleges and Universities (2012, 2013), forprofit universities enroll over 4 million students annually, or 12% of the U.S. college population. On average, for-profits charge $15,000 in tuition for full-time students, compared to $8,655 for public four-year colleges, and $3,131 for community colleges (College Board, 2013).…”
