23 PRESENTATION TITLE HERE FIRST GENERATION STUDENTS (FGS)
24 UC Climate is a Consideration & Concern Half of all UC students are first generation students. (UCOP, 2015)
25 Unpacking the Label First-Generation ª First Generation Students (FGS) are the first in their family to attend college (Terenzini, et. al., 1996) ª There is a high correlation between being FGS and being a URM ª There is a high correlation between FGS and being low-income ª Approximately 75% of all Latino students in the U.S. have parents with no college degree (Saenz, et al., 2007; Gandara & Contreras, 2009; Contreras, 2011) ª First Generation Students lack college knowledge and more likely than peers to under match and have a lower academic self concept (Contreras, et al., 2011)
26 What we Know about FGS ª First Generation students are more likely to work 20+ hours while in college (Perna, 2006; Saenz et al., 2007; Gandara & Contreras, 2009) ª First generation students tend to prefer to remain close to home (Contreras et. al., 2011, 2012; Saenz, et. al., 2007) ª First generation students more likely to assist their families financially ª First generation students less likely to know about college reputations (selectivity) College is college ª First generation students have parents who want them to attend college (Saenz, et. al., 2007; Contreras, 2012) ª FGS come from all different backgrounds, ethnic, gender, country of origin
27 Institutional Actions that Impact Success ª Have a the will to assist prior to focusing on how to assist ª Recognize that FGS are: ª Typically from historically Underrepresented communities ª Allocate appropriate resources ª Know the students ª Counteract microagressions & neglect ª Be intentional about learning and engagement 27
28 Steps to Improving Engagement Create Intentional Engagement Opportunities: ª Make people aware of the connection between engagement and learning ª Understand how engagement is prioritized for FGS ª Cultivate the power of networks ª Formal and informal ª Faculty and staff ª Learning communities ª Student organizations ª Mentoring programs & systems in place 28
29 MOVING THE CONVERSATION FORWARD
30 OPPORTUNITIES FOR TARGETED INVESTMENT Climate considerations are real for underrepresented students ACTIVELY work to improve campus climates through faculty diversity, enrolling critical mass of underrepresented students Kanyewestern Party at UCLA 2015 Compton Cookout, UCSD, 2010 Assess and act upon the academic outcomes of FGS on your campus Raise campus endowment levels to be able to give resources for student scholarships for FGS
31 OPPORTUNITIES FOR TARGETED INVESTMENT Financial Aid and Work Study Opportunities. First generation students working on campus are more likely to have greater levels of engagement and access to strong peer networks. Access to Professional Mentors while in College. Internships, research opportunities, exposure to multiple professions and individuals that have made it from similar socioeconomic and racial backgrounds motivates and inspires first generation students. Programs like POSSE, Puente, Meyerhoff, with strong mentorship components have proven to be successful among URMs (Gandara & Contreras, 2009). Merit increases for faculty--working directly with underrepresented FGS students should be among criteria for evaluation
32
33 Framing the Conversation & Developing Solutions 1. What is the climate on our campus for first-generation students? ª How are FGS identified? ª How are FGS defined? 2. Compared to non-first generation, are first-generation students on our campus successful? ª Are FGS learning, being retained, and graduating in a reasonable time frame? ª Who is responsible for addressing the needs of FGS? ª Facutly ª Staff ª Programs ª McNair Program ª TRIO Programs (SSS and Upward Bound) Barbra Browning ª What is the motivation to assist FGS? 3. What are we doing to assist first-generation students? ª What might be getting in the way of assisting these students? ª What are the risks/costs of doing nothing? 33
