Black\n\nUndergraduates at the Nation's 122 Most SelectivePrivate Colleges and Universities  \nBY:GABRIEL MONTAGUE,ED.M.,HIGHER EDUCATION RESEARCH ANALYST  \nIn 2020,The Education Trust released a report titled,“Segregation Forever?,”which explored the continued underepresentation of Black and  \nLatino first-time,full-time undergraduate enrollees at the nation's 101 most selective four-year public collegesand universities in 2000 and 2017.This analysis provided evidence that Black and Latino students remainedvastly underrepresented at these institutions,based on the population demographics of the states in whichthese public colleges and universities were located,with Black students having less access in 2017¹than theydid in 2000.  \nAs a follow up to this critical work,authored by the late Dr.Andrew Nichols,we explored access for thesesame student groups at the nation's 122 most selective four-year private colleges and universities by lookingat the years 2000 and 2020,to see how well Black enrollment at these institutions matched the demographicsof Black residents in the states from which first-time students came.While the share of Black studentenrollment grew at nearly 3 in 4 of these institutions between 2000 and 2020,enrollment failed to representthe demographics of the states from which students came.While population parity is not the ultimate goal,itis the most reliable benchmark for comparison based on available data at the time of our analysis.This
