Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This qualitative research study used critical narrative inquiry methods to investigate the experiences of TRIO Upward Bound Program alumni during their program participation, and to explore how those experiences, according to participants' own accounts, influenced their creation of a college-college going culture in their households for their own children. TRIO Upward Bound is a federally funded college access program that serves first-generation, low-income high school students, providing support and motivation to pursue higher education. Study participants were alumni of TRIO Upward Bound Programs in the state of Ohio who have earned a baccalaureate degree or higher, and are now the parents of college-enrolled or college-graduated children. The theoretical frameworks utilized in these analyses were cultural and social capital, and funds of knowledge. Study participants described receiving assistance with their high school-to-college transition, academic support, and mentoring through their participation in Upward Bound. They also shared that Upward Bound exposed them to experiences that increased their cultural and social capital, building upon the funds of knowledge they had received from their parents and other family members. The participants further recounted how they used their Upward Bound Program experiences to shape college-going cultures in their homes, and create pathways into higher education for their children. Implications for practice involving student recruitment, alumni connections, and creating college-going cultures are detailed, as well as implications for policy that include increased funding for TRIO Programs, participant tracking beyond six years after high school graduation, and changes in federal reporting structures.

Book excerpt: Upward Bound is a federally funded program designed to help low-income and first-generation high school students become college graduates by providing them with academic enrichment, financial aid information, and relevant educational experiences. Many Upward Bound programs throughout the country include a 6-week summer program when participants stay in residence halls on a university campus. The Upward Bound program at the University of North Texas is one such program. The goals of this research project are to understand how the residential component of the summer program affects the experience of participants in Upward Bound and the possible benefits it may have towards meeting the overall goals of the program. Participant observation during the 2016 UNT Upward Bound summer program and interviews with participants, RAs, program alumni, and organizational leaders uncovered the ways in which the residential component benefits and enriches the experience of participation in Upward Bound.

Book Synopsis Higher Education Passport by : Natasha Latrelle Beckett

Book excerpt: As a college preparatory program, TRIO Upward Bound (UB) cultivates capital among first-generation, low-income Students of Color. However, limited research is available regarding which services specifically provide capital and how the capital guided participant's pathways to and through higher education. Unfortunately, the assets of marginalized populations that are typically under-represented in higher education are not highlighted as much as the deficits. In this qualitative study, I utilized Bloom's (2008) concept of college-going capital to explore the experiences of TRIO UB participants by employing narrative inquiry as a research design to support a constructivist paradigm as I examined the impact of TRIO UB providing college-going capital. Data collection included semi-structured interviews and a photo elicitation project along with holistic and categorical data analysis for the stories of six African American TRIO UB alumni who at the time of the study were successfully matriculating in higher education. The findings conclude that college-going capital is established through campus visits, college entrance test preparation, and financial aid workshops along with simulated college activities such as cohort modeling and residential programming. Additionally, TRIO UB alumni indicated that their communication and leadership skills were developed as program participants allowing them to successfully interact in collegiate environments as well as assisted them with developing a network of college educated individuals to motivate them and support their academic goals. Furthermore, the research suggests that access to higher education translates to opportunity when college and university staff, faculty, and administrators are committed to shifting from the pre-conceived deficits of first-generation, low-income Students of Color and focus on the assets that these students bring to the world of academia. The findings of this study have implications for practice, policy, and future research.

Book Synopsis Creating Campus Cultures by : Samuel D. Museus
Download or read book Creating Campus Cultures written by Samuel D. Museus and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-12 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many colleges and universities have not engaged in the critical self-examination of their campuses necessary for effectively serving racially diverse student populations. This timely edited collection provides insights into how campus cultures can and do shape the experiences and outcomes of their increasingly diverse college student populations. By cultivating values, beliefs, and assumptions that focus on including, validating, and creating equitable outcomes among diverse undergraduate students, an institution can foster their success.While attention to campus climate is critical for gauging the nature of an institution’s culture and how students are experiencing the campus environment, changes in climate alone will not lead to holistic and deep rooted institutional transformation. Moving beyond previous explorations of campus racial climates, Creating Campus Cultures addresses the considerable institutionally embedded obstacles practitioners face as they attempt to transform entrenched institutional cultures to meet the needs of diverse student bodies. A broad range of chapters include voices of students, new research, practical experiences, and application of frameworks that are conducive to success. This book will help student affairs and higher education administrators navigate this increasingly difficult terrain by providing practical advice on how to foster success among racial minority students and enact long-term, holistic change at any institution.
