The essays complicate and enrich our understanding of who the first-gen student actually is, just as first-gen students also complicate and enrich our nation’s campuses. The book promises to help colleges and universities better understand first-gen students and support them in meaningful, effective ways, moving beyond discussion of ‘access’ alone and toward retention and graduation. The book is a valuable addition to the literature driving change to make higher education both more welcoming and more responsive to the needs and aspirations of all students.” —Carolyn Leste Law, Thesis\/Dissertation Advisor at Northern Illinois University and coeditor of \u003ci\u003eThis Fine Place So Far from Home: Voices of Academics from the Working Class\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCarolyn Calloway-Thomas: Preface – Teresa Heinz Housel: Acknowledgments – List of Abbreviations – Section One: The Weight of Intersecting Marginalized Identities – Teresa Heinz Housel: The Importance of Intersecting Marginalized Identities in Considering: What Is Known and Not Known About First-Generation College Students – Audra K.
