很喜歡作者對於工薪甚至貧睏階層的孩子在精英大學生活的探討,話說作者本科就讀的Amherst College 就在母校旁邊,每次去都能感受到撲麵而來的中上層白人精英主義的氣息... 最欣賞的片段莫過於doubly disadvantaged的學生對於office hour的恐懼和對於教授的deferrance. 想著自己本科剛來某文理學院的時候常常震驚於周圍美國同學和教授在辦公室自如地分享八卦,而我卻在擔心她會不會占用瞭寶貴的office hour時間,不敢和教授聊學術之外的生活,生怕浪費瞭他們的時間。還好感謝本科的導師們,都went out of their way to help, 也算某種程度上彌補瞭學生們自身社會階級的cultural capital的gap吧
評分整本書都在翻來覆去地打苦情牌,所以是怎樣,讓讀者給你水滴籌啊?
評分不知道為啥,這種書總有一種一眼看到頭的感覺,特權那本也是。

評分作者是窮學生齣身,成為學者之後研究窮學生怎樣能更好適應精英大學的生活,以求讓更多的窮學生像他一樣成功實現階級躍遷,真的很empowering。本書很好讀,作者很有邏輯地把學生的testimony串起來瞭。"Access is not inclusion"。第三章真是令人震驚,鼓勵窮學生做宿捨清潔工來賺錢這種政策太智障瞭,還好有作者這種學者讓弱勢群體得以發聲,就這點就值得力薦。本書結論不是鼓勵更多窮學生讀私校成為privileged poor,而是鼓勵更多公校能賦權。最後的attachments也很有意思,作者留白瞭很多值得研究的地方,比如亞裔完全不在研究樣本裏。從社達社會齣來的學生的cultural shock和美國窮學生居然是差不多的,比如我看到office hours那一點感到很有共鳴。
Anthony Abraham Jack, a native of Miami, received a scholarship to attend Gulliver Preparatory School, an elite private high school in South Florida. He went on to receive degrees from Amherst College and Harvard University. He is currently a Junior Fellow at the Harvard Society of Fellows, an Assistant Professor at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, and the Shutzer Assistant Professor at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study.
Getting in is only half the battle. The Privileged Poor reveals how―and why―disadvantaged students struggle at elite colleges, and explains what schools can do differently if these students are to thrive.
The Ivy League looks different than it used to. College presidents and deans of admission have opened their doors―and their coffers―to support a more diverse student body. But is it enough just to admit these students? In The Privileged Poor, Anthony Jack reveals that the struggles of less privileged students continue long after they’ve arrived on campus. Admission, they quickly learn, is not the same as acceptance. This bracing and necessary book documents how university policies and cultures can exacerbate preexisting inequalities and reveals why these policies hit some students harder than others.
Despite their lofty aspirations, top colleges hedge their bets by recruiting their new diversity largely from the same old sources, admitting scores of lower-income black, Latino, and white undergraduates from elite private high schools like Exeter and Andover. These students approach campus life very differently from students who attended local, and typically troubled, public high schools and are often left to flounder on their own. Drawing on interviews with dozens of undergraduates at one of America’s most famous colleges and on his own experiences as one of the privileged poor, Jack describes the lives poor students bring with them and shows how powerfully background affects their chances of success.
If we truly want our top colleges to be engines of opportunity, university policies and campus cultures will have to change. Jack provides concrete advice to help schools reduce these hidden disadvantages―advice we cannot afford to ignore.
哈佛,MIT,斯坦福........这些金光闪闪的名字,任谁收到这类精英大学的录取通知书不是心中狂喜呢?美国的精英大学,被誉为拥有全世界最好通识教育最高学府,是全世界学子心之所往的圣地,多少家庭为了孩子能进入这类大学一掷千金,多少孩子为了自己的梦想卷到内伤。 美国大学...
評分这本书写的是美国精英名校中的贫困大学生,因为涉及到阶层之类的敏感字眼,所以中国人非常有共鸣,心有戚戚。 但这种共鸣是错误的幻觉。 举个例子,电影Joker,有独身公寓,吃喝不愁,还有心理医生免费看。 这种人叫「活得不好」? 同理,这本书中的贫困生,确实经济条件不富裕...
評分中国版的“寒门子弟上大学”的故事是:一个出生农村普通家庭的小孩,父母基本都是务农或者干一些体力活维持生计,父母小学或者初中毕业,好一点是有读过高中,上过大学的几乎是没有的。从小到大学习基本只能靠自己的自觉和努力,父母对成绩基本不怎么过问,只关心你在学校有没...
評分这是一本写法很接地气的书,内容朴实无华,甚至有些内容会让读者认为过于重复,但杰克的这种写法,目的就是强调他的核心观点--经济差异-->文化资积累不足-->该现象在教育行业的体现。杰克引入双重贫困生、寒门幸运儿、高收入学生三者来对照研究,特别是前两组的对照,直...
評分近几年,常有人说“寒门再难出贵子”,没想到这种情况在美国同样常见。 美国精英大学以富人家庭的孩子为主,根据家庭收入和高中时期的经历,可以划分为“家庭富裕且就读过精英高中的学生”(第一类)、“出身寒门但就读过精英高中的学生”(第二类)和“出身寒门且没读过精英高中的...
