Providing Culturally Relevant Services for International Black African Collegians in the United States: A Guide for Student Affairs Professionals

  • 1. Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey

Description

The experience of international Black African collegians (IBAC) in U.S.

higher education has not been adequately investigated, particularly as it

relates to understanding the diversity within Black and international student

populations. In this manuscript, I offer seven culturally relevant suggestions

for student affairs professionals, all of which build on my professional

experiences working with IBAC in student affairs as well as my research with

Nigerian collegians in U.S. higher education.
