I think I have to start the talk page before anyone can peer review, so here we go.

Content

Your content was very good. We found a few grammatical/spelling errors ("Departments that focus on creating courses that educate on American culture and race need to stop being seeing as optional", "institutions of higher education that have traditionally of catered to a specific population", etc.). Under the heading "Institutional racism in higher education:" there is a missing citation at the end of quotations, first paragraph. I (Reyna) recommend not ending the first paragraph with a direct quotation but rather add a sentence or two with own words to end it. Another recommendation would be to add an introductory phrase to direct quotations.

I (Shanti) found a place missing a citation in the first sentence, third paragraph under institutional racism faced by students. It's a great bit of data and readers will wonder where it came from. Overall, reading your article was informative and interesting; readers will gain a good introductory understanding regarding racism in the institutional setting, especially regarding faculty.

Figure

We had no concerns regarding the figure used in your article. The figure represented what you discussed in your article regarding racial breakdown of faculty in higher education. It appears to be added appropriately. Good job!

References

Your references also appear to be appropriate. Although the majority come from journals, you included a New York Times article as well as information from the American Education Research Association. Your research appears to be varied and appropriate for the article. Again, good job! Baileyshanti (talk) 15:37, 12 March 2014 (UTC)baileyshanti
