Hi Folks,
I just wanted to thank you all for the resources and the great discussion. Maybe I missed it, but did we discuss the profile of a “traditional” student? I appreciate what James said about the “nontraditional” student as the common student in some settings.
James, thank you also for the framework for thinking about moving from the mentee to the mentor…I see my own experiences reflected under the “psychology of scholarly exclusion” and the “inferiority complexes” section, particularly as it relates to agency in the classroom. I am curious about resistance efforts students of color make to this imposed domination of whiteness…I am curious how it is addressed in the literature.
I just wanted to get my thoughts out before the busy-ness of life kicks in for the week. I’m looking forward our next session.
Phillip, if at all possible, can you do a “Round 2?” of this TSC? : ) This scholarly circle is providing such an awesome opportunity for shared inquiry. Thanks again! nadine
