A long way from home: deeping our understanding of first-generation students -- Strangers without codebooks: isolation and marginalization -- Re-imagining the university: theoretical approaches to serving first-generation college students -- Toward community, connectedness, and care -- Rationale and design for the multicultural learning community -- Belonging and finding place -- Claiming self: identity and academic voice -- On critiques and possibilities.

Higher Education and First-Generation Students offers readers a rich understanding of the experience of students who are first in their family to attend college. This book contends that first-generation students are isolated and marginalized on many large college campuses and considers learning communities and critical multicultural pedagogies as vehicles to cultivate community, voice, and place for this new majority of students. This book is a theoretically informed study of the lived experience of FG students and draws on their voices to demonstrate how their insights interface with what we, as educators, think we know about them. What can we learn from these students? How might their insights inform and shape the learning spaces we create for them?
