"One of the unique features of the text that set it apart from others is the use of theory throughout the chapters. A number of the foundational stduent development theories do not take into consideration persepectives from diverse populations. Thus, there is a need for research that examines the experiences of diverse groups and articulates how well the theories reflect the experiences of diverse populations. In conclusion, this is an excellent resourceful book that faculty and administrators can use to enhance multiculturalism on college campuses."
