Book Description
My research focused on the relationship between career development and the different facets of racism that presents challenges in the world of academia. The social landscape of society was torn as a result of the deaths of Travon Martin, Mike Brown, Eric Grey and Eric Garner. Public opinion has varied on the causes of the deaths of many individuals in the African American community. As the author of this study I felt compelled to highlight the strength and perseverance of minorities in a college environment. Upon the completion of my study I realized that I was chronicling myself.

Book Description
In this study we used a multimethod approach to examine how three types of self-construal (independent, interdependent, and relational-interdependent) play a role in the adjustment outcomes of American college students. Participants were 131 students from five ethnic backgrounds (African American, Asian American, Caucasian, Latino/a, and Biracial/Mixed) primarily in their first semester of college. Consistent with previous research, the results indicated that the independent self-construal was directly linked to less distress and greater overall adjustment. In addition, we found an indirect relationship between relational-interdependence and college adaptation through the mediators of social support and peer attachment. Results from both the quantitative and qualitative analyses indicated that the Asian American participants were doing poorly in their college transition. Implications for students, higher education professionals, and college campuses in general are discussed.
The Impact of a Sense of Belonging in College

Book Description
Sense of belonging refers to the extent a student feels included, accepted, valued, and supported on their campus. The developmental process of belonging is interwoven with the social identity development of diverse college students. Moreover, belonging is influenced by the campus environment, relationships, and involvement opportunities as well as a need to master the student role and achieve academic success. Although the construct of sense of belonging is complex and multilayered, a consistent theme across the chapters in this book is that the relationship between sense of belonging and intersectionality of identity cannot be ignored, and must be integrated into any approach to fostering belonging.Over the last 10 years, colleges and universities have started grappling with the notion that their approaches to maintaining and increasing student retention, persistence, and graduation rates were no longer working. As focus shifted to uncovering barriers to student success while concurrently recognizing student success as more than solely academic factors, the term “student sense of belonging” gained traction in both academic and co-curricular settings. The editors noticed the lack of a consistent definition, or an overarching theoretical approach, as well as a struggle to connect disparate research. A compendium of research, applications, and approaches to sense of belonging did not exist, so they brought this book into being to serve as a single point of reference in an emerging and promising field of study.
