In 2010, Dr. Oscar Dowdell-Underwood sought to reproduce in postsecondary education the academic success he cultivated in his over 40 years of teaching primary and secondary students of color. Focusing on postsecondary men of color, Dr. Dowdell-Underwood conducted qualitative research among collegiate black males to identify the strongest predictors of scholastic achievement among this group. The results of his study were pivotal, challenging the classic deficit perspective by which society and education relate to young black males. Dr. Dowdell-Underwood found that perceptions of mattering built on specific environmental messages was among the strongest predictors of academic achievement in collegiate young men of color – not remediation strategies. Having used environmental messaging techniques to narrow the achievement gap among elementary and high schools students of color – methodology referred to as the “Underwood Model” – Dr. Dowdell-Underwood found that similar methodology could be adapted to collegiate students of color to produce academic success.
