Professor weighs in on racial, gender bias in school discipline

Education Week recently took a look at the disparity in discipline practices, and included associate professor Bettina Love in the discussion.

Love said she is concerned that teachers often misunderstand the identities of African-American girls, and as a result girls’ school experiences are not as rich or meaningful. She joined researchers Adrienne D. Dixson, Shaun R. Harper, and Terri N. Watson in the discussion.
