摘要

目的:社区大学是学生父母接受高等教育的主要切入点之一,它可以引导学生获得工作机会和高薪职业。我们使用一个概念框架,将职业资本和社区文化财富连接起来,以了解学生父母的大学和职业轨迹。本研究的问题是:(a)有色人种学生的父母如何适应社区大学?(b)有色人种学生的父母如何做出教育和职业决定?(c)如果有的话,有色人种学生家长利用哪些机构资源来了解校园内的职业规划和劳动力过渡资源?方法:这一定性案例研究通过对67名有色人种学生家长的个人和焦点小组访谈来更好地了解他们如何利用他们的文化知识和生活经历来驾驭大学和做出职业决定。结果:数据表明(a)学生父母作为大学生和父母难以驾驭生活;(b)学生在寻求大学和职业信息时,家庭和机构支持网络的重要性。贡献:我们希望这些发现能鼓励社区大学(重新)考虑他们目前与学生家长群体有关的做法,包括识别和跟踪学生家长,根据他们的独特需求实施指导路径,向学生家长提供沟通服务,为学生及其家庭创造一个更友好的环境。

“I Had to Figure It Out”: A Case Study of How Community College Student Parents of Color Navigate College and Careers
Objective: Community colleges, which can lead students to job opportunities and well-paying careers, are one of the main entry points to higher education for student parents. We use a conceptual framework that bridges career capital and community cultural wealth to understand student parents’ college and career trajectories. This study asks (a) How do student parents of color navigate community college? (b) How do student parents of color make educational and career decisions?, and (c) What, if any, institutional resources do student parents of color utilize to learn about career planning and workforce transition resources at their campus? Method: This qualitative case study draws from individual and focus group interviews with 67 student parents of color to better understand how they tap into their cultural knowledge and lived experiences to navigate college and make career decisions. Results: Data speaks to (a) student parents’ difficulty maneuvering life as a college student and parent; and (b) the importance of students’ familial and institutional support networks as they seek college and career information. Contributions: We hope these findings will encourage community colleges to (re)consider their current practices relating to the student parent population which includes identifying and tracking student parents, implementing guided pathways with their unique needs in mind, communicating services offered to student parents, and creating a more welcoming environment for students and their families.

期刊介绍: The Community College Review (CCR) has led the nation for over 35 years in the publication of scholarly, peer-reviewed research and commentary on community colleges. CCR welcomes manuscripts dealing with all aspects of community college administration, education, and policy, both within the American higher education system as well as within the higher education systems of other countries that have similar tertiary institutions. All submitted manuscripts undergo a blind review. When manuscripts are not accepted for publication, we offer suggestions for how they might be revised. The ultimate intent is to further discourse about community colleges, their students, and the educators and administrators who work within these institutions.
