Please join the Educational Studies department for the 13th Annual Kurth-Schai Education & Advocacy Lecture featuring Dr. Anthony Abraham Jack. The lecture will be held in the John B. Davis Lecture Hall in the Campus Center at 4:45pm and will be followed by a book signing and reception. 

Dr. Anthony Abraham Jack is the Inaugural Faculty Director of the Boston University Newbury Center and Associate Professor of Higher Education Leadership at Boston University. His research documents the overlooked diversity among lower-income undergraduates: the Doubly Disadvantaged­—those who enter college from local, typically distressed public high schools—and Privileged Poor­—those who do so from boarding, day, and preparatory high schools. His scholarship appears in the Common Reader, Du Bois Review, Social Problems, Sociological Forum, and Sociology of Education and has earned awards from the American Sociological Association, American Educational Studies Association, Association for the Study of Higher Education, Association of American Publishers, Eastern Sociological Society, and the Society for the Study of Social Problems.
