LatinX Students in Higher Education: Re-Envisioning Student Success. Key Issues on Diverse College Students
Nichole Margarita Garcia
Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group
The most recent addition to the "Key Issues on Diverse College Students" series, this important volume bridges theory to practice in order to help higher education professionals support LatinX students in colleges and universities.?"LatinX Students in Higher Education"?challenges the traditional metrics of student success in higher education for LatinX students, offering a revised definition of student success to re-envision the skills and abilities that these students bring from their communities into institutions of higher education and community-based settings. Garcia's powerful counter-story narratives shed light on the urgent need for systemic reform, and ultimately this book challenges institutions to adopt more inclusive and anti-racist practices that honor cultural identity, community, and resilience. This is a must-read for researchers, educators, student affairs professionals, students, and policymakers committed to creating an equitable higher education system and promoting the success of LatinX populations in higher education.
