description As part of a symposium commenting on by Stanley Rothman, Seymour Martin Lipset, & Neil Nevitte's "Does Enrollment Diversity Improve University Education (2003)," important methodological problems with the authors' study are identified. Of primary concern is the reliance on respondents' (students, faculty, & administrators) subjective ratings as a measure of educational quality. Ways that such perceptions can be biased by racial stereotypes & prejudices are discussed, along with the need for more accurate analysis & presentation of the data. Areas for further research & policy implications are also explored. 7 References. K. Hyatt Stewart
