Book excerpt: College student populations are becoming increasingly more diverse as students from diverse backgrounds have greater access to higher education. Additionally, governing bodies have heightened expectations related to student success, retention, and time to degree, thus holding institutions of higher education more accountable. With a changing student demographic and increased accountability measures, faculty and administrators are seeking effective strategies to enhance intercultural responsiveness among underrepresented populations to support their success. Developing an Intercultural Responsive Leadership Style for Faculty and Administrators is a critical research publication that examines student retention and success among underrepresented college student populations by analyzing factors impacting their persistence towards graduation as well as exploring strategies to enhance intercultural responsiveness among these populations. Featuring a wide range of topics such as diversity, intercultural fluency, STEM education, and lifelong learning, this book is ideal for administrators, faculty, academicians, policymakers, researchers, and students.
