"Experiencing ""Upward Bound"": An interrogation of cultural landscapes"

"This thesis addresses one of the most significant public issues facing higher education today: the recruitment and successful matriculation of low-income and minority students. These students are variously described in the literature and popular language as ""non-traditional,"" ""marginal,"" ""differential,"" ""disadvantaged,"" and ""at-risk,"" coming to the campus as they usually do from social and educational circumstances where college attendance has been neither expected nor encouraged."
