Survey of American College Students 2022: Interest in Courses and Degrees in History
More than 14% of women but less than 11% of men showed high levels of interest but nearly half of transgender students believed it likely or highly likely that they would take a course in African or Latin American history. Gay and bisexual students were 2 to 3 times more likely than straight students to show interest.
Broken out by race or ethnicity, nearly 27% of Black students and 17% of Hispanic students showed interest vs. only 5.33% of students of Asian ancestry and 12.14% of Whites. Mixed race students were the most interested: About 28.4% showed significant interest. Once again interest was much higher from private than public college students – 19.49% vs. 11.29% - and was particularly high from students studying at BA-level and special focus institutions – 25.61% and 37.5% respectively.
