Описание: This book examines how previously excluded high-achieving, low-income students are faring socially and academically at an Ivy League college in New England.
Описание: As more and more of the college-going population is made up of those who are the first in their families to attend college, institutions need to find ways to help these students succeed if they expect to maintain enrollments.
Описание: Uncovering the complex ways that first-generation students sort themselves and are sorted into very different college worlds, Benson and Lee show that these experiences are deeply shaped by organizational practices and vary by class, race, and gender with both immediate and long-term implications for climbing the socioeconomic ladder.
Описание: College Belonging reveals how colleges’ and universities’ efforts to foster a sense of belonging in their students are misguided. Colleges bombard new students with the message to “get out there!” and “find your place” by joining student organizations, sports teams, clubs and the like. Nunn shows that this reflects a flawed understanding of what belonging is and how it works. Drawing on the sociological theories of Emile Durkheim, College Belonging shows that belonging is something that members of a community offer to each other. It is something that must be given, like a gift. Individuals cannot simply walk up to a group or community and demand belonging. That’s not how it works. The group must extend a sense of belonging to each and every member. It happens by making a person feel welcome, to feel that their presence matters to the group, that they would be missed if they were gone. This critical insight helps us understand why colleges' push for students simply to “get out there!” does not always work.
