Ideologies of Invisibility and Support for Families of Color during Orientation Initiatives
Sarubbi, Molly; Marquez Kiyama, Judy; Harper, Casandra E.
Journal of Student Affairs Research and Practice, v56 n1 p49-62 2019
This article reviews how orientation programs perpetuate or combat an ideology of invisibility for families of Color during the transition into college. Findings identify the ways in which ideologies of invisibility or support are constructed through institutional messaging of dismissal or welcome that influence the engagement of families of Color. Implications are offered for research and practice when working directly with diverse families and for extending literature around the role of families in higher education.
