Conversations with top social scientists about their research and the social world. Produced by The Society Pages.
In this episode, guest host Neeraj Rajasekar talks to Harvard professor Natasha Warikoo [1] about her book The Diversity Bargain: And Other Dilemmas of Race, Admissions, and Meritocracy at Elite Universities [2]. The book centers on conversations with white students and students of color at Harvard, Brown, and Oxford around their understandings of diversity and diversity programs. Through these interviews, Warikoo illustrates how elite students make sense of their positions at elite universities, the merit involved, and the role privilege plays.
