- Summary:
- Drawing on results of surveys and interviews they conducted, California education scholars Perez (Claremont Graduate U.) and Cortes (Glendale Community College) examine how undocumented Latino students cope with the challenges created by their legal status. They cover immigration, psychosocial functioning, and higher education access; challenges and barriers to arriving at the higher education gateway; coping, social support, and achievement; and institutional perspectives on students' socioemotional experiences.
