Description
First-Generation College Student Research Studies brings together research from a group of dynamic scholars from a variety of institutions across the United States. This extraordinary edited volume examines the first-generation college student population and analyzes topics such as college choice, social experiences, dual credit on academic success, lifestyles and health status, and professional identity/teaching practices. The empirical studies in this book contribute greatly to the research literature regarding the role that educational leaders have in educating first-generation college students.

About the contributors
Reviews
-
In the past, much of the research on first-generation students focused on our deficits…While there is much merit in this foundational work, we have learned over the years that there is also another story to be told—the story of our strengths, of our determination, and of the deep sense of purpose that compels us to keep going. First-Generation College Student Research Studies does just that. I applaud the work of Dr. Terence Hicks and associates for bringing this important project to fruition.
