Students,” 107. Black male students were also more responsive to school size and the
overall socioeconomic status (SES) level at schools, so that smaller schools with lower
overall SES composition increased their comfort in participating in class. Id., 109. There
is some controversy around the concept of culturally different learning styles and needs.
See J. Mitchell, “Black Children after the Eighties.” The dangers of crude or essentializing
approaches obviously loom large in this area. But carefully contextualized work has
actually demonstrated that improved learning resulted for some minority children from
application of difference-oriented pedagogical techniques. See, for example, Hue-Pei and
Mason, “Social Organizational Factors in Learning to Read”; Barnhardt, “Tuning In”;
Tharp, “Psychocultural Variables.”

dents, of whom professors seemed to have similar expectations regardless of race.

there are indications that some black women receive strong support from their families in
their college ambitions: “There is evidence . . . that black parental attitudes have tradition-
ally been relatively more favorable to college education for daughters than for sons.”

results regarding third-year students, as it is the more motivated students who show up
for class at this point in law school. (In fairness, it should be noted that a number of
previous studies in this area faced difficulties—difficulties that Gulati and his coauthors
did not—with response rates, so that there are relatively few existing studies without

some kind of methodological problem limiting our reading of their results. Because my
study relies on observational research, I use summaries of other kinds of research sim-
ply to provide a broad backdrop for this study, focusing more intensively only on other
observational studies.)
35. Id. “Gloomy” responses included students indicating that they were pessimistic
about their future career opportunities and dissatisfied with their law school experiences;
in addition, they felt that law school was unnecessarily competitive, and they did not agree
that faculty treated students respectfully.
