The CRRES Student Affiliates are a diverse group of students who have a central interest in the study of race and ethnicity. Research conducted by current CRRES graduate student affiliates ranges from examining racial disparities in educational gaps on a national level to investigating the racialized experiences of immigrant women in new immigrant destinations in the South and Midwest.

  • CRRES offers opportunities for students to present their work and research ideas that focus on the topic of race and ethnicity.
  • CRRES provides a supportive environment where student affiliates can establish and nurture social networks with other CRRES affiliates.
  • Affiliates are prominently featured on the CRRES website, with a brief description of research profile and links to presentations and write-ups that they have produced for CRRES
