Research suggests that community college alumni may be underrepresented within PhD programs. As such, we implemented and evaluated the Community College to PhD (CC2PhD) Scholars Program at the University of California, Los Angeles. CC2PhD was a 7-month undergraduate research and PhD preparation program for community college sophomores in the…

Ocean, Mia; Mohr, Jeanean; Parker, Ava L.; Barbatis, Peter; Vajello, Maria M.; Woods, Kathleen; Tigertail, Kelli; Keller, James – Community College Journal of Research and Practice, 2021
The majority of research related to community and state colleges is conducted by external individuals, primarily university faculty. This approach reinforces the hierarchical structure within higher education and lends to potential bias and exclusion of characteristics unique to such colleges. The purpose of this study was to utilize a democratic…

In envisioning the future of literacy, students' voices are paramount. Students' engagement in classroom talk increases their learning and communication skills, but without intentional implementation, classroom talk can perpetuate hegemony in contemporary classrooms. To better explore this phenomenon, we developed a study in a southeast Texas high…

Lisa S. Romero; Jenna Tryon Polhemus; Benjamin M. Saubolle-Camacho – Journal of Latinos and Education, 2024
Undergraduate research experiences can have a positive impact on student retention and success in STEM, but are not widely available to community college students. Yet, the role of community colleges in producing STEM graduates, especially Latinx students, is overlooked and likely underestimated. A program designed to attract and retain Latinx…

Meyer, Rika; Sohani, Madhura; Alvares, Stacy M.; Hunt, Katharine; Sciabarra, Christina; Gapinskim, Jacqueline Goeres – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2023
Undergraduate research experiences have been widely demonstrated as a beneficial and essential component of the college experience. However, many community colleges face barriers and lack of support in implementing such research programs, which means a significant number of community college students miss out on these impactful experiences.…

Efforts to address the harmful physiological effects of stress and anxiety among nursing students are ongoing. Incorporating stress-reduction techniques into the nursing curriculum is highly beneficial, but there is a lack of research regarding what methods to use and how to implement them. The setting for this research was a small rural community…

Featuring scientists in classroom materials provides opportunities for students to relate to scientists as role models and see themselves in science. However, it is unclear what information students find most relatable when encountering scientists throughout their education. In this study, we manipulated the amount and type of information provided…

The current study assesses the utility of the University Belongingness Questionnaire (UBQ) in community college settings. Utilizing item response theory (IRT), the UBQ was evaluated with a sample of 1155 community college students at one large community college on the west coast. In addition, other constructs were measured to ascertain the…
