My college wants to dismiss me for what I believe are racist reasons. What should I do?

If your college or university is trying to dismiss you or take some disciplinary action or other adverse against you, for reasons that you believe are racist in nature, there is much at stake obviously. A school may be running a foul of federal law, Title VI, and Title VII specifically. It could running a foul of state law also. Unfortunately schools, they don't always do the right thing. Students can find themselves in situations that are motivated by racist or other say dishonorable forces that would create the potential issue for the student involved.

Having an experienced attorney advisor is going to help you best understand what your rights are, what's appropriate to the circumstances what's not, and how to best understand and navigate the process to address such a concern. They should be involved as soon as you have any concern of a racist behavior or action being taken by a college or university.
