Graduate Doctoral Dissertations
Upon entering college, Black males must negotiate a system that assumes they are in need of academic remediation and are lacking in higher-order critical thinking skills (Washington, 1996; Brown II, 2002; Harper, 2012).

This is a Massachusetts based summer residential program that focuses on teaching science, math and writing …
