Bio

Kirk is broadly interested in how racial and economic inequities shape educational institutions. His research utilizes ethnography to explore the daily realities of diversity policy and practice in higher education, examining diversity as something institutions do rather than something people are. He is also interested in how practices ranging from student activism to mindfulness can help educational institutions recognize and challenge systemic and institutional inequities.
