Abstract:
|
This study examines both the presence and absence of Asian Americans in a
sorority system at a predominantly White institution in the Southeastern U.S.
Using critical race theory to analyze interviews with eighteen Asian American
college women, half of whom belonged to sororities and half who did not, the
study asks the following questions: How do Asian American women both inside
and outside Greek life view sororities? Are sororities a site where race still
matters? How do Asian American women recognize the role of race or downplay
its significance in their perceptions of sororities? |
