This theoretical paper is based on a larger study focused on understanding the experiences of Latina community college students. The purpose of this paper is to expand upon the Silence to Resilience Model, which involves four phases that Latinas encounter upon or throughout their transition to community college including: (1) Racism on campus, (2) Emotional reactions to the racism encounter(s), (3) Silence and resilience, and (4) Outcomes ranging from motivation to persistence. Throughout the four phases the transition of identity occurred for the participants of the larger study conducted. The identity transition experience that emerged from the larger study's findings involves growing and developing a new or modified identity as a Latina community college student who experiences unique challenges and barriers due to being Latina. Presented in this paper is the Identity Transition Cycle within The Box, a model involving a trichotomy of stages during which the identity evolves including: (1) Clarity and Insight, (2) Shifting Facet of Self, and (3) Embrace of Self. The identity transition cycle also encompasses Latina students gaining an understanding that barriers and oppressive experiences on campus are unique in that they occur due to being Latina. Although the identity transition that occurs along the continuum ultimately yields itself to an embrace of self, the process of identity transition for Latina community college students is often cyclical and influenced for better or worse by mass media and campus stereotyping.
