مستخلص: | The rise of Latinx college enrollment has resulted in a corresponding increase in colleges identifying as Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSI). Yet, Latinx students' degree attainment continues to lag, with a noteworthy drop in attendance after the first year of college. Freshman year is a pivotal time as students adjust to a new environment and must learn how to successfully navigate college. During this developmental transition, campus support is key in helping students successfully transition and persist in college. This qualitative study examined first generation Latinx students at an HSI to assess students' navigation of college, explore their knowledge and utilization of campus services, and examine their engagement with peers and faculty. Although many students acknowledged the presence of campus resources, there remained a disconnect in how to become integrated within the campus community. Universities can better support first generation Latinx students by reflecting on how institutional practices can be more visible to students, and promoting opportunities for relational exchanges between students, their peers, and professors to increase students' sense of belonging and retention over time. |
