人们通常认为，少数民族服务机构（MSI）-学院和大学的使命或能力，以服务代表性不足的学生-经营的使命，以减轻种族的广泛不平等。然而，在何种程度上这仍然是真实的西班牙裔服务机构（HSIs），增长最快的MSIs的子集，是有争议的，未系统地探讨。在这项研究中，作者简要地详细介绍了作为一个种族化的地位，并考虑如何学院和大学今天被指定为HSI服务拉丁裔学生与种族化的联邦资金。作者认为，HSI被确立为种族化名称的历史过程和标准继续塑造着他们的种族逻辑。通过对美国教育部（2009-2016年）成功的第五章“发展西班牙裔服务机构”拨款摘要的人口进行内容分析，作者发现HSI如何概念化他们的拉丁裔学生群体具有很大的一致性，但他们如何寻求“服务”拉丁裔学生的差异很大。在绝大多数情况下（85%），拉丁裔学生并没有集中在HSIs的标题五计划的努力，这是相反的组织，以服务于他们的整个学生团体。由于HSI的地位主要是由拉丁裔学生入学，而不是一个使命，以服务拉丁裔学生，占主导地位的色盲白色逻辑经常坚持在HSI。因此，拉丁美洲的教育不平等很少得到明确解决。在他们的追求，以确保资金作为少数民族服务机构，我们发现，HSIs往往未能中心的拉丁裔学生谁允许他们的资格。
It is often presumed that minority-serving institutions (MSIs)—colleges and universities with the mission or capacity to serve underrepresented students—operate with a mission to alleviate broad inequalities by race. Yet the degree to which this remains true for Hispanic-serving institutions (HSIs), the fastest growing subset of MSIs, is contested and unexplored systematically. In this study the authors briefly detail the founding of HSI as a racialized status and consider how colleges and universities designated as HSIs today are serving Latinx students with racialized federal funding. The historical process and criteria by which HSI was established as a racialized designation, the authors argue, continues to shape their racial logics. Through a content analysis of the population of successful Title V “Developing Hispanic-serving Institution” grant abstracts to the U.S. Department of Education (2009–2016), the authors find great consistency in how HSIs conceptualize their Latinx student populations but substantial variation in how they seek to “serve” Latinx students. In the large majority of cases (85 percent), Latinx students are not centered in HSIs’ Title V programmatic efforts, which are instead organized to serve their entire student bodies. Because HSI status was conferred primarily by Latinx student enrollments, and not a mission to serve Latinx students, dominant colorblind White logics frequently persist at HSIs. Consequently, Latinx educational inequalities are rarely explicitly addressed. In their quests to secure funding as minority serving institutions, we find that HSIs often fail to center the Latinx students who permit their very eligibility.
