Latino/a Youth Identity and Adaptation. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, Sep 2010, Pages: 276
Latino/a Youth Identity and Adaptation is a qualitative study examining the lives and personal stories of 22 college freshmen of Mexican descent and how they acculturate in their first year at a university. Challenges including institutional racism, pressure to assimilate, and ignorance of Latino/a values are current barriers to the academic success and leadership development of students of Mexican descent in higher education, particularly at predominantly white campuses.
