Abstract	How students racially identify continues to be critical for tracking and monitoring disparities in a number of outcomes. Little is known, however, about the meanings of race students enact when encountering the ubiquitous "race questions" used to operationalize these groups. This mixed methods study explored college students' (N = 637) underlying meanings behind racial identification, finding six distinct patterns of racial meanings that provide insight into the fluidity of racial demographics and implications for practice. (As Provided).
