This highly interactive session includes a brief review of ways Multiracial identity has been framed over the past 20 years, including key issues that both support and challenge traditional theories of racial identity development.\u00a0 A new model of multiracial identity that incorporates aspects of intersectionality is presented and demonstrated as a learning and programming tool.\u00a0 Interactive discussion allows participants to examine questions often raised by the topic of Multiracial identity on campus, such as: to what extent is racial identity chosen as opposed to assigned? Do racial groups embody aspects of culture, and if so, what is Multiracial culture? To what extent should institutional policies and practices change to accommodate Multiracial people? and What interventions and programs have been successful in meeting the needs of Multiracial students, and what can we learn from our mistakes?<\/p>\n<p>For more information, click <a href=\"http:\/\/ncore.ou.edu\/2012\/majorworkshop3.html\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Multiracial Identity: New Models and Frameworks for Describing and Understanding the Experience of Race and Identity National Conference on Race &amp; Ethnicity (NCORE) 2012 New York, New York 2012-05-29 through 2012-06-02 Date &amp; Time To Be Determined Charmaine L.
