For youth of color, losing trust in teachers may mean losing the chance to make it to college

(Society for Research in Child Development) In a new set of longitudinal studies, minority youth perceived and experienced more biased treatment and lost more trust over the middle school years than their White peers. Minority students' growing lack of trust in turn predicted whether they acted out in school and even whether they made it to college years later.
