    EP144: Project upGRADS, Leading the Charge for Disadvantaged Students in Graduate Education at CSU Fullerton – A 2024 Example of Excelencia
    2024/11/14
    Created in 2005 by Excelencia in Education, Examples of Excelencia is a national initiative that identifies and promotes evidence-based practices improving Latinx student success in higher education. This year, Project upGRADS at California State University (CSU) Fullerton was chosen as the Example of Excelencia at the graduate level. In this episode, we welcome CSU Fullerton’s Dr. Volker Janssen, Professor of History & Director of Project upGRADS, and Dr. Katherine Powers, Principal Investigator. Funded by a $3 million grant from the U.S. Department of Education, Project upGRADS offers a range of services including fellowships, mentoring, a summer bridge program, and proactive advising to help students succeed. The program also emphasizes the importance of faculty training to create a culturally responsive environment for Latinx students. Data shows that Project upGRADS participants have higher graduation rates and GPAs compared to their peers. Tune in as Janssen and Powers, along with Diverse host Ralph Newell, discuss barriers Latinx students encounter, such as financial challenges and cultural perceptions about graduate education. With their current grant nearing its end, they also share information on funding plans and a new grant, Elevar, which will focus on expanding equity in curriculum and further developing faculty training. This is the final feature in our series of four institutions being recognized in 2024 by Excelencia in Education. In case you missed it, check out the prior episode featuring this year’s Example of Excelencia at the undergraduate level: How CAMP at Washington State improves outcomes for students from migrant seasonal farm working communities — A 2024 Example of Excelencia | Diverse: Issues In Higher Education. KEY POINTS: - Project upGRADS’ national data-driven efforts for Latinx student success. - How Powers promotes equity for Hispanic graduate students through providing grants. - Supporting students through fellowship programs, mentoring, and summer bridge program. - Challenges faced by Latinx students in pursuing graduate degrees. - Summer bridge program and how it promotes inclusivity and belongingness. - The importance of connecting students with student services and faculty. - Future of Project upGRADS and new grant opportunities. - The faculty role in influencing institutional change. - How Powers and Janssen balance their teaching and grant work. - Financial support as identified need to help Latinx students. QUOTABLES: “We survey graduate students often about their needs and about their opinions on particular parts of the program or the university — and one thing that they would all like to have more of is financial support.” - Dr. Volker Janssen “Summer Bridge Program is the hidden curriculum of graduate school, because it's a common misconception that graduate school is just an extension of college, just more of the same. And that's just not the case.” - Dr. Volker Janssen “We can query the system. We can sort by a number of characteristics of the applicant, including race, ethnicity, and then we do intensive proactive [advising] by reaching out to them." - Dr. Katherine Powers GUEST RESOURCES: CSUF - Project upGRADS Project upGRADS — a 2024 Example of Excelencia FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA: X (formerly Twitter): http://twitter.com/diverseissues Instagram: http://instagram.com/diverseissuesinhighereducation Facebook: http://facebook.com/DiverseIssuesInHigherEducation/ LinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/company/diverse-issues-in-higher-education WATCH THIS VIDEO AND OTHERS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/@DiverseIssuesInHigherEducation Closed captioning and a live show transcription are available in the video for this episode.

    EP143: CAMP at Washington State: Improving Student Outcomes for Migrant and Seasonal Farm Working Families — A 2024 Example of Excelencia
    2024/10/31

    In this episode we sit down with Michael Heim, the Director of Migrant Education Student Access & Support (MESAS) at Washington State University Pullman (WSU).

    Heim has overseen both the College Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP) and the High School Equivalency Program (HEP) at WSU for seven years. Under his leadership, WSU CAMP has been selected as this year’s Example of Excelencia at the baccalaureate level.

    Created in 2005 by Excelencia in Education, Examples of Excelencia is a national initiative that identifies and promotes evidence-based practices improving Latinx student success in higher education.

    Tune in as Heim, and Diverse host Ralph Newell, dive deep into the inner workings of the College Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP), which supports students from migrant and seasonal farm working backgrounds during their first year of college.

    WSU’s CAMP serves a cohort of Latinx students annually, focusing on retention through evidence-based practices that positively impact these students' educational journeys. Despite its successes, the conversation also explores the challenges CAMP faces, such as the need for continued support beyond the first year and the role of community partnerships in sustaining student success.

    This is the third feature in our series of four schools being recognized in 2024 by Excelencia in Education. In case you missed it, check out our prior episode featuring this year’s Example of Excelencia at the associate level: Getting to Know the EAP program at Reading Area Community College episode.

    KEY POINTS:

    - WSU emphasizes diversity, focusing on its growing Latinx population.

    - CAMP supports students facing challenges, leading to a 10% higher graduation rate.

    - More funding could further boost CAMP’s retention and graduation outcomes.

    - Ongoing support from K-12 to higher ed is vital for migrant students.

    - The University of Idaho tragedy underscores the need to validate student concerns and build trust.

    - WSU and University of Idaho CAMP programs foster community among migrant students.

    QUOTABLES:

    “CAMP is a program specifically designed to help students who come from a background in migrant and seasonal farm working to have success during the first year and transition into their second year. – Michael Heim

    "The stronger the foundation for that student, the more successful they'll be later." – Michael Heim

    "The goal is to really serve the state as a land grant institution. We've noticed that at least one sector is kind of growing pretty quickly and that population is our Latinx student population." – Michael Heim

  • EP142: Breaking down the Latino electorate with Clarissa Martínez De Castro, Vice President of the Latino Vote Initiative at UnidosUS — Election 2024 series, part two of two

    EP142: Breaking down the Latino electorate with Clarissa Martínez De Castro, Vice President of the Latino Vote Initiative at UnidosUS — Election 2024 series, part two of two
    2024/10/24

    Tune in as Clarissa Martínez De Castro, Vice President of the Latino Vote Initiative at UnidosUS, discusses the need for accurate information and education to ensure full election participation and encourage eligible Latino voters to register to vote.

    Committed to strengthening civil society, De Castro spearheads initiatives that emphasize the significance of ongoing, year-round voter empowerment and engagement efforts. She highlights the importance of voter registration and turnout among Latino youth.

    Join in as she, along with Diverse host Ralph Newell, take a deep look at how the Latino Vote Initiative works to increase civic engagement and voter registration among Latino communities — registering 150,000 voters by the end of the cycle. Despite being a significant voting bloc, De Castro shares that Latinos often face voter suppression and lack of outreach challenges.

    This discussion is part-two of our Election 2024 two-part series. In part-one we looked at Voter Suppression and the Importance of Minoritized Youth Voting in the United States with Dr. Carol Anderson.

    KEY POINTS:

    - The Latino Vote Initiative seeks to increase understanding and empower communities in the electoral process.

    - 8 out of 10 Latinos in the U.S. are citizens, and 9 out of 10 under age 18 are citizens, dispelling common misconceptions.

    - The initiative is driving voter registration efforts, including digital outreach to over 150,000 new Latino voters.

    - A key focus is educating first-time and young Latino voters on their rights and voting options.

    - Voter suppression tactics, such as false immigration voting claims and voter purges, present challenges for Latino voters.

    - Economic concerns like cost of living, jobs, and healthcare are top priorities for Latino voters.

    - Lack of outreach from politicians and political parties has contributed to apathy among young Latino voters.

    QUOTABLES:

    "The reality is that the majority of Latinos in this country are United States citizens. Eight out of 10 Latinos are United States citizens." – Clarissa Martínez De Castro

    “The work we do on the agency side —- registration, education, and get out the vote, and then on the narrative side – an accurate understanding of these voters. We do very robust polling.” – Clarissa Martínez De Castro
