Abstract	Encounters with racism, racial stereotypes, microaggressions, and low expectations from professors and others undermine their academic outcomes, sense of belonging, and willingness to seek help and utilize campus resources. At predominantly White institutions, men of color may often be in classes where they are one of few students from their racial groups--if not the only one. In recent years, such trends among Black, Latino, Native American, and some Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) male student populations have garnered the attention of student affairs administrators, college presidents, policymakers, and concerned others. This brief advocates for institutional responsibility for student success, with an emphasis on what student affairs administrators can contribute to ongoing efforts to improve rates of success among college men of color. Given the complexities and magnitude of issues, student affairs divisions on their own cannot do everything required to improve experiences and outcomes among minority male populations; faculty, academic affairs administrators, presidents and provosts, and policymakers also have roles to play. Nonetheless, student affairs leadership is critical to any institution-based efforts. It presents five important steps for student affairs professionals to improve educational success among AAPI, Black, Native American, and Latino male undergraduates. (ERIC).
