Rövid leírás:
In Developing Scholars, Domingo Morel explores the history and political factors that led to the creation of community-centered affirmative action programs for students of color in the 1960s. Through a case study of an existing program, Talent Development, Morel shows how protest, including violent protest, has been instrumental in the maintenance of college access programs. He also reveals that in response to the college expansion efforts of the 1960s, hidden forms of restriction emerged that have significantly impacted students of color. Developing Scholars argues that the origin, history, and purpose of these programs reveal gaps in our understanding of college access expansion in the US that challenge conventional wisdom of American politics.

Over the past fifty years, debates concerning race and college admissions have focused primarily on the policy of affirmative action at elite institutions of higher education. But a less well-known approach to affirmative action also emerged in the 1960s in response to urban unrest and Black and Latino political mobilization. The programs that emerged in response to community demands offered a more radical view of college access: admitting and supporting students who do not meet regular admissions requirements and come from families who are unable to afford college tuition, fees, and other expenses. While conventional views of affirmative action policies focus on the "identification" of high-achieving students of color to attend elite institutions of higher education, these programs represent a community-centered approach to affirmative action. This approach is based on a logic of developing scholars who can be supported at their local public institutions of higher education.

Developing Scholars argues that the origin, history, and purpose of these programs reveal gaps in our understanding of college access expansion in the US that challenge conventional wisdom of American politics.
Developing Scholars makes an important intervention in scholarship on college access policies by centering the social movements which produced college access for Black and Brown students, while also shining a light on the many ways these programs have been restrained and stripped of their power through the implementation of secondary admissions criteria and defunding. Importantly, this book illustrates that for many Black and Brown students, higher education is not an individual pursuit, but rather a collective undertaking made possible by social movements and continually sustained by community members. This book should be read by scholars of higher education and social movements.
