Popis:	While the academy has made real efforts at creating opportunities for people of color in the last several decades, real integration remains wanting. In the majority White, upper-class academy, people of color are often seen but not heard. Working from the experience of the author—a first generation Latino in higher education—this piece examines the expectations placed on the shoulders of academics and students of color. The article calls for thoughtful debate on these issues and argues for a greater role in inclusion of people of color in the intellectual life of the academy such that we can be seen and heard.
