SummaryDiffering racial cultural attitudes towards education affect college graduation rates. In this paper we will be discussing the racial attitudes of four distinct racial groups: Asian, African-American, Hispanic and Caucasian. At the very outset of the paper I want to begin with my personal observations and how they stemmed this question. In my observations of being a black male, and a fairly observant one at that, I noticed that there are few (at least around UNC and CSU where I get to see the most) minority students. While it could be the demographics of the area, I am not going to blame it on that. It has been my observation around the cultural centers that there aren’t many successful minority students. Let me modify that statement, there aren’t very many successful minority students with one major exception, Asian-American students. I wanted to know why and thus began my research. Why don’t minorities graduate from college in 2008?
