Youth and Identity: Strengths and Struggles, First-gen Students Persist
There is a lot of literature on the challenges of being a first-generation college student, but not as much on the strengths of first-gen students. Researchers Stacey Havlik, PhD, and Krista Malott, PhD, both assistant professors of Education and Counseling, created an eight-session counseling curriculum designed to better prepare first-gen students for college and piloted the study in a Philadelphia high school in 2017. In this episode, Dr. Havlik, Dr. Malott and Jose Diaz ’19 MA, a first-generation student himself, talk about facilitating the program and its potential as an evidence-based practice.
