Literature defines a mono-cultural perspective in the classroom as a culture that is completely dismissed and is viewedirrelevant by the instructor21,23. Ways of learning may clash with the instructor’s teaching style,and therefore, learning becomes irrelevant to the students. When classroom conversations arebeing led by majority students and faculty, this becomes a constant reminder to AA students oftheir guest status. If students do not succeed academically, then they are misunderstood asunderprepared, unintelligent, and unmotivated21,23.
