, &
Pages 123-145 | Published online: 18 Aug 2006
 

This study analyzes survey data to explore differences in experiences between African-Americans and whites in criminology/criminal justice education. The experiences of females in criminal justice education are also explored. Written comments from the respondents on issues specific to gender and race discrimination are included. Findings point toward different academic experiences for minorities and females, than for white males and to different experiences for minorities than for whites. Results suggest a need to address gender and racial biases as separate and distinct phenomena occurring in criminal justice academia.
