Welcome!

I am a doctoral candidate in sociology at Brown University. My research interests span racial theory and racism, higher education, and organizational theory. You can reach me at prabhdeep_kehal@brown.edu. My pronouns are they/them/their. 

Currently, my projects are concerned with how prestige is constructed within higher education, and how constructs of prestige and merit serve as mechanisms for maintaining racialized inequality. For 2017-2019, I am a Graduate Fellow in Community Engaged Scholarship at Brown University.

In 2018, you can find me at the Du Boisian Scholar Network convening and the American Sociological Association's Annual Meeting.
