In reality, the university still excludes many people and is a site of racialization that is subtle, complex, and sophisticated. This book, the first comprehensive, data-based study of racialized and Indigenous faculty members' experiences in Canadian universities, challenges the myth of equity in higher education. Drawing on a rich body of survey data, interviews, and analysis of universities' stated policies, leading scholars scrutinize what universities have done and question the effectiveness of their employment equity programs. They also make important recommendations as to how universities can address racialization and fulfill the promise of equity in the academy."-- $c Provided by publisher. 530 $a Issued also in electronic format. 650 0 $a Indian college teachers $z Canada. 650 0 $a Discrimination in employment $z Canada. 650 0 $a Discrimination in higher education $z Canada. 650 0 $a Race discrimination $z Canada. 650 0 $a Universities and colleges $z Canada. 650 0 $a Equality $z Canada. 650 7 $a Discrimination in employment. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00895050 650 7 $a Discrimination in higher education. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00895076 650 7 $a Equality. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00914456 650 7 $a Indian college teachers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01738264 650 7 $a Race discrimination. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086465 650 7 $a Universities and colleges. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01161597 651 7 $a Canada. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204310 700 1 $a James, Carl, $d 1952- $e author. 700 1 $a Li, Peter S, $e author. 700 1 $a Kobayashi, Audrey, $d 1951- $e author. 700 1 $a Smith, Malinda Sharon, $d 1962- $e author. 700 1 $a Ramos, Howard, $d 1974- $e author. 700 1 $a Enakshi, Dua, $d 1958- $e author. 776 1 $a Henry, Frances, 1931- $t Equity myth. $w (CaOONL)20179017330 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20210707013834.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8B3D37E8774811E7923FA1BEDAD10320 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
