Confessions of a Black Academic: A Memoir
This compelling memoir chronicles a higher education career that spans more than four decades. Dr. Schexnider’s college years ran parallel to the civil rights movement and the Vietnam War—both of which shaped his life and career in profound ways. He also explores the evolution of public policy, from affirmative action and equal employment opportunity (AA/EEO) to today’s efforts to dismantle diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). Additionally, the book examines the ongoing challenges of recruiting and retaining Black faculty and staff, concluding with a thought-provoking look at the future of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).
