W. Carson Byrd studied twenty-eight of the most selective colleges and universities in the United States to see whether elite students' social interactions with each other might influence their racial beliefs in a positive way, since many of these graduates will eventually hold leadership positions in society. He found that students at these universities believed in the success of the 'best and the brightest,' leading them to situate differences in race and status around issues of merit and individual effort. Poison in the Ivy challenges popular beliefs about the importance of cross-racial interactions as an antidote to racism in the increasingly diverse United States. He shows that it is the context and framing of such interactions on college campuses that plays an important role in shaping students' beliefs about race and inequality in everyday life for the future political and professional leaders of the nation. Poison in the Ivy is an eye-opening look at race on elite college campuses, and offers lessons for anyone involved in modern American higher education. 410 0$aAmerican campus. 606 $aElite (Social sciences)$zUnited States 606 $aCollege integration$zUnited States 606 $aUniversities and colleges$xSocial aspects$zUnited States 606 $aCollege students$zUnited States$xAttitudes 606 $aRacism in higher education$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xRace relations 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aElite (Social sciences) 615 0$aCollege integration 615 0$aUniversities and colleges$xSocial aspects 615 0$aCollege students$xAttitudes. 615 0$aRacism in higher education 676 $a378.1/982996073 700 $aByrd$b W.
