Book excerpt: Thirty-one alumni who were the first in their family to obtain a college degree share their experiences as first-generation students in this noteworthy new text. Their stories illuminate how the struggles of first-generation students are primarily due to a combination of multiple social inequities that are ignored, reinforced, and perpetuated by exclusive college systems. Speaking directly to current and future first-generation students, the authors offer tips and advice for success, along with powerful words of encouragement. Faculty and staff will also benefit from reading this book, as the authors describe a more equitable system in which universities are enriched by the wisdom, experiences, and talents of first-generation students while promoting a generative culture for all learners.

Book The Early College High School Graduate

Download or read book The Early College High School Graduate written by JoDee L. Woodcock and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This qualitative study examined the social and academic experiences of early college high school graduates in postsecondary environments. The study's findings were derived from three structured student interviews, a focus group, and a survey. These methods of gathering data were used to gain insight into the academic and social experiences of early college high school graduates. A current trend for institutions of secondary education is to provide opportunity for high school graduates to enter higher education with previously earned college credits. "Early college is a bold approach, based on the principle that academic rigor, combined with the opportunity to save time and money, is a powerful motivator for students to work hard and meet serious intellectual challenges" (Early College High School Initiative, 2008). Although a noble intention opening the door to higher education for at-risk and socioeconomically disadvantaged students, ECHS has some educators questioning the impact of diminishing crucial developmental timelines, associated with this accelerated program. The voices of these graduates were heard and it was determined that these early college students felt that their experiences as participants of ECHS positively impacted their academic and social experiences at the post-secondary level. However, graduates attested to the great amount of sacrifice and determination the early college program demanded and cautioned that not every student may be prepared for the demands of an early college program.

Download or read book The Hidden Curriculum written by Rachel Gable and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2022-07-26 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revealing look at the experiences of first generation students on elite campuses and the hidden curriculum they must master in order to succeed College has long been viewed as an opportunity for advancement and mobility for talented students regardless of background. Yet for first generation students, elite universities can often seem like bastions of privilege, with unspoken academic norms and social rules. The Hidden Curriculum draws on more than one hundred in-depth interviews with students at Harvard and Georgetown to offer vital lessons about the challenges of being the first in the family to go to college, while also providing invaluable insights into the hurdles that all undergraduates face. As Rachel Gable follows two cohorts of first generation students and their continuing generation peers, she discovers surprising similarities as well as striking differences in their college experiences. She reveals how the hidden curriculum at legacy universities often catches first generation students off guard, and poignantly describes the disorienting encounters on campus that confound them and threaten to derail their success. Gable shows how first-gens are as varied as any other demographic group, and urges universities to make the most of the diverse perspectives and insights these talented students have to offer. The Hidden Curriculum gives essential guidance on the critical questions that university leaders need to consider as they strive to support first generation students on campus, and demonstrates how universities can balance historical legacies and elite status with practices and policies that are equitable and inclusive for all students.
