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.

这是一份从阶级分化角度呈现美国高等教育暗室与隐疾的社会学论著。它引人注目的第一点是题眼中“寒门子弟”与“精英大学”的概念搭配,以及作者安东尼·杰克大胆使用“背弃”(failing)一词,以彰显他势必通过本作对美国精英教育的体制性失败予以揭示的决心。本作改写于他在哈...

这本书的英文标题是《The Privileged Poor》,是“寒门幸运儿”的意思,译者翻译成《寒门弟子上大学》。“寒门弟子上大学”更多动感,让人遐想。 作者来自于迈阿密的椰林区,家境贫困。幸运地参加了“赢在起跑线”项目,因此能够就读格列佛预科学校-一所昂贵的私立高中,在生活...

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...

論文看多瞭不是很習慣這種目錄結構瞭,標題上直接引用瞭participator的話,是吸引人的,但是看不齣學術脈絡會感到無所適從。以不平等視角進入精英大學,探討窮人睏境的研究可謂捲帙浩繁,the Poor的心酸艱難基本上都能想象得到。這本比較有創新的地方在於,按照高中學校的定位和與大學接軌的程度從中劃分齣瞭兩個類彆:PP(Privileged Poor)和DD(Doubly Disadvantage),甚至Uni也在官方話語中承認並使用這兩個概念。訪談對象很完備,學生、管理者和教授都涉及到,看到DD對於Office hour的畏懼特彆有共鳴,可能直到現在我都還是覺得那是一種打擾,心理負擔很重。看完學校的勤工助學項目、帶有歧視的文化援助項目、春假餐廳關門實在是大跌眼鏡,震驚。

從一個很具體的人群切入,通過三組在精英大學來自不同階級背景的學生的比較,非常具體又條理清楚的看到現在的學校製度下,貧睏學生所經曆的睏境。很多意在幫助他們的措施也可能是進一步強化差異,沒有考慮到心理層麵帶給學生的感受。階級和教育題材書籍中的又一塊磚。

就講講故事。沒什麼洞見。

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
