DESCRIPTION:Led by Candice Powell\, Cynthia Demetriou\, Terrell Morton\, & 
 A.T. Panter of The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.  Racial di
 sparities in retention and graduation rates are a top concern across insti
 tutions of higher education\, yet scholars and practitioners rarely look t
 o racism to explain these disparities (Harper\, 2012). Critical Race Theor
 y (CRT) is an epistemological and methodological framework designed to rev
 eal and challenge power and oppression dynamics between racialized groups 
 (Harper\, 2009\; Lynn & Dixson\, 2013). CRT can provide insight about how 
 racism serves to maintain and reinforce educational policies\, practices\,
  and access to resources and opportunities. Increasing awareness of system
 ic racial inequities creates opportunity for people in power positions to 
 engage in socially conscious action and decision-making within higher educ
 ation (Ladson-Billings\, 1998\; Patton\, 2015\; Robbins & Quaye\, 2014). T
 his webinar will provide a conceptual introduction to CRT for retention pr
 actitioners and considers how the CRT framework can elucidate minoritized 
 student retention at predominantly white institutions. Strategies for usin
 g CRT to guide institutional decision-making are also offered.
