This book aims to provide direction toward the development and maintenance of a transfer-receptive culture, which is defined as an institutional commitment by a university to support transfer students of color. A transfer-receptive culture explicitly acknowledges the roles of race and racism in the vertical transfer process from a community college to a university and unapologetically centers transfer as a form of equity in the higher education pipeline.
