• Enacting Diverse Learning Environments : Improving the Climate for Racial/Ethnic Diversity in Higher Education by Sylvia Hurtado, Jeffery F. Milem, Alma R. Clayton-Pederson, and Walter R. Allen. This monograph is based on the assumption that achieving diversity and educational equity will remain one of higher education’s most critical goals. It provides college administrators, faculty members, and students with information that can guide them in improving the climate for diversity on their campus.
• Intergroup Dialogue: Deliberative Democracy in School, College, Community, and Workplace by David L. Schoem and Sylvia Hurtado, (Eds.).  Intergroup dialogue represents a grassroots effort to meet one of the major challenges facing our democracy today: conflicts or lack of communication between diverse groups of people in schools, in communities, and in the workplace. By forging lines of communication between different elements of society, intergroup dialogue helps to create a more just, harmonious, and strong democracy. (The website to which this book is linked provides a very thorough review of the content and chapters from this book!).
