Abstract:
|
Graduate students who identify as first-generation (FG) experience many of the same challenges in graduate school as they did while completing their undergraduate programs. Asset-based advising is critical in aiding FG graduate students in navigating institutional barriers. In this interactive session, the presenters will share a culturally responsive advising tool to aid advisors in using holistic and humanizing approaches by engaging strengths, as well as honoring the complex and interrelated nature of various facets of students' lives. |
