\"\"Welcome back all! This week we wish\u00a0Sociological Images <\/em>a happy birthday! We also reflect on coded racial language in schools, the U.S. Supreme Court’s influence on diversity in college admissions, and immigrants’ sexual attitudes during college.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s Research on That!<\/a>:<\/h3>\n

“The Supreme Court\u2019s Impacts on Race and Admissions in America<\/a>,” by Neeraj Rajasekar<\/a>. In light of Brett Kavanaugh’s recent nomination for the U.S. Supreme Court, we rounded up research on how the Court has influenced diversity in college admissions.<\/p>\n

Discoveries<\/a>:<\/h3>\n

“Coded Language Reinforces Racism in School<\/a>,” by\u00a0Lucas Lynch<\/a>. New research in\u00a0Sociological Perspectives\u00a0<\/em>finds that teachers and students use coded racial language to explain Black students’ poor academic achievement.<\/p>\n
