RodriÌguez. 520 $a "In Know That You Are Worthy: Experiences from First Generation College Graduates, 31 alumni who were the first in their family to obtain a college degree share their experiences in college. These 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. These authors speak directly to current and future first generation students, offering tips and advice for success, along with powerful words of encouragement in their emotionally rich narratives. College faculty and staff are challenged to shift their perspectives from viewing these students from a deficit lens or attempting to make them more like continuing-generation students, to instead having deeply honest confrontations with the pedagogies and structures of college, which are frequently so ingrained that they are invisible, and that cater to continuing-generation students, who are often predominantly white, middle- and upper-class. Colleges can create 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 students"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a First-generation college students $z United States. 650 0 $a College graduates $z United States. 650 0 $a People with social disabilities $x Education (Higher) $z United States. 650 0 $a Motivation in education $z United States. 650 6 $a EÌtudiants de premieÌre geÌneÌration $z EÌtats-Unis. 650 6 $a DiploÌmeÌs d'universiteÌ $z EÌtats-Unis. 650 6 $a Personnes socialement deÌfavoriseÌes $x Enseignement supeÌrieur $z EÌtats-Unis. 650 6 $a Motivation en eÌducation $z EÌtats-Unis. 650 7 $a College graduates $2 fast 650 7 $a First-generation college students $2 fast 650 7 $a Motivation in education $2 fast 650 7 $a People with social disabilities $x Education (Higher) $2 fast 651 7 $a United States $2 fast 700 1 $a Rodriguez, Adam J., $d 1975- $e editor. 700 1 $a Norman, Yolanda, $e author of foreword. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Know that you are worthy $d Lanham, Maryland : Rowman & Littlefield, [2023] $z 9781538162422 $w (DLC) 2022049178 941 $a 1 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20240529010227.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CD4C97881D8011EFA6667B3325ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
