Mexican American Persistence At A Hispanic-Serving Institution: Lessons And Anomalies In A 10-Year University Cohort, Alfredo Salinas

Theses and Dissertations - UTB/UTPA

Higher education continues to be the most viable avenue for improvement in the lives of racial minorities. The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board has called for an increase in the number of Hispanics in higher education institutions in the state of Texas. Although there is a substantial amount of literature in higher education, only a limited amount pertains to special populations. This is even more pronounced for literature that investigates persistence. This study will contribute to the analysis of such factors that can be targeted to improve the college persistence and completion rate of Hispanics. The institution where this study …
