Exploring the Student-to-Faculty Ratio and Degree Attainment in Florida
James Rujimora; Laurie O. Campbell; Ronald F. DeMara
Journal of Hispanic Higher Education, v23 n4 p215-227 2024
Although several factors influence Hispanic Latina/o/x degree attainment, less is known regarding student-to-faculty ratio at Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSI) in Florida. We examined publicly available data for HSI (n = 14) and non-HSI (n = 88) degree attainment among Hispanic Latina/o/x students in Florida. Pearson correlations and regression analyses indicated statistically significant correlations between student-to-faculty ratio and Hispanic Latino/a/x students who earned bachelor's degrees. Implications for hiring and promotion are discussed.
