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.
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.
浅尝辄止,有点可惜。
评分3星半其实 现在美国这种书籍有一个普遍毛病就是写作很散 而且后面比较重复 不过他给出的视角非常值得参考。我知道会有人认为让寒门子弟半工半读是”天将降大任“,但不能忽视的是现代人心理健康的重要性。这个问题是恶毒”凤凰男“和”做题家“的一体两面。给他们超越原生家庭的机会,而不是居高临下认为自己施舍了高等教育的机会,是非常重要的。
评分文字没的说。第三章作为留学生读着读着也很容易共情。第二章看到一个特别像我自己做TA的一个例子,有点愤怒。决定放进本科生intro syllabus
评分对于上层社会而言,阶级是比肤色和种族更为直观的分界线。
评分不知道为啥,这种书总有一种一眼看到头的感觉,特权那本也是。
本应很快读完的一本书 这次战线拉的有点长 关于这本寒门子弟上大学这本书,是有一天刷到自己比较欣赏的一位知识博主推荐了这本书,博主在过程中有共情的阐述当年自己有机会做交换去到了哈佛大学,在这样顶尖的学习殿堂,遇到了非常多优秀的精英群体,自己虽出身在国内的中产阶...
评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...
评分外行人先说说我眼中的不足:这本书似乎没怎么用到统计学的方法,只有定性的分析,没有定量的准确的结论;基础教育方面国情不同,PP和DD的分法对我们来说不太适用 说说有价值的部分,在985five引起广泛关注的今天,这本书无疑为我们的大学生提供了一些参考。前几天听我家住海淀...
评分中国版的“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...
评分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...
