The purpose of this article is to examine if educational homogamy patterns are associated intergenerationally, the extent to which today’s couples are homogamous, and how this translates into levels of family income and financial and overall well-being. To examine these relationships, 28 years of longitudinal data from the British Columbia Paths on Life’s Way project are employed. First, changes in marital status, educational completion, and homogamy are examined with the goal of defining these constructs more precisely. Through descriptive statistics, the relationship between educational attainment and related homogamy levels of Paths respondents and their parents is established. Then, the technique of correspondence analysis is used to determine the relationship between assortative mating and the nature and extent of inequality experienced by Paths respondents. Findings reveal that educational homogamy and its intergenerational associations exist and the extent to which it exacerbates inequality in terms of family income levels, contributions to registered investment plans, and physical, mental, and financial well-being in the sample. The findings of this article highlight the value of a post-secondary education in relation to marriage strategies, and the reproduction of inequalities.

Cet article s’intéresse au parcours postsecondaire de treize jeunes ayant vécu un placement au sein des services de la protection de la jeunesse au Québec et ayant bénéficié d’un projet philanthropique visant à soutenir leur parcours scolaire et leur transition vers la vie adulte. Par la mise en lumière de tensions identitaires, cet article vise à saisir la manière dont ces jeunes ont vécu leur intégration dans le milieu postsecondaire, tout en composant avec une injonction à la vie adulte. L’anal-yse des entretiens individuels met en lumière trois tensions au cœur de la construction de leur identité en tant qu’étudiants postsecondaires avec un historique de placement : une première tension entre l’ascension sociale désirée et les stigmates assignés, une seconde tension entre le désir d’être autonome et le lien de dépendance envers le programme philanthropique, et une troisième tension entre le potentiel scolaire perçu et la pression vécue

Intentional efforts to advance the societal impacts of research are known as knowledge mobilization (KMb). Despite increas-ing pressure on researchers and higher education institutions (HEIs) to engage in KMb activities, capacity building in this area is constrained by a limited understanding of the role of HEIs from the perspective of embedded KMb professionals. This study presents findings from a developmental evaluation of Research Impact Canada’s efforts to build institutional capacity for KMb. Through semi-structured interviews (n = 20) with KMb professionals from 15 Canadian HEIs, we share (a) approaches for how KMb professionals can thrive in institutional environments, and (b) essential questions about KMb for the higher edu-cation sector. From that basis, we discuss how there is a need for skilled KMb professionals within HEIs and a need for (inter)national research and practice collaborations.

Student services professionals have emerged as significant supportive collaborators in the construction ofvenvironments that encourage student success within Canadian post-secondary education (Hardy-Cox & Strange, 2010). In Canada, literature pertaining to student services is evolving and research from other contexts is therefore often used to inform student affairs practices in this context. Yet, without a comprehensive understanding of research that is focused on Canadian student services specifically, those working in post-secondary education are left with a scope of understanding that may not always apply to the unique contexts in which they work. The purpose of this research study is to begin mapping the landscape of re-search on Canadian student services. We review articles pertaining to student success, the student experience, and student services, that have been published in national (Canadian Journal of Higher Education) and international (Journal of College Student Development; Journal of College Student Retention: Research, Theory and Practice; Journal of College Student Psychotherapy; Journal of Student Affairs Research and Practice; and Student Success) student services and post-secondary education journals. This scoping review documents Canadian academic research published within the student services field and describes contributing authors and their affiliations, graduate student and post-doctoral fellow involvement, provincial and territorial research clusters, research movements over the decades, institutional research contexts, and research participants’ level of education and communities/populations, as well as contextual trends and themes.

Diversity and equity have become central themes of institutional planning in Canadian post-secondary institutions. The complexity and variance of such activities, and their disconnect from individual experiences, are inherently related to the social norms established by the dominant cultural group. This article argues that published research articles play an important role in reflecting how organizational norms are understood and institutionalized. To trace the normative shifts in how diversity has been addressed in research articles, a systematic analysis of over 186 peer-reviewed articles published in the Canadian Journal of Higher Education between 1971 and 2020 was performed. The findings demonstrate that the concept of diversity has evolved from being examined in narrow binary categories of socio-economic, language, and gender diversity to a more recent focus on intersectionality. The shift from diversity being an issue of individual concern to diversity being a core institu-tional responsibility closely related to student learning is apparent. The article ends with recommendations for future areas of research with specific calls made to increased uptake of critical approaches to diversity for more nuanced perspectives of our accepted social norms in Canadian higher education.

This study compared the differences between students entering university directly from high school vs. those transferring from other higher education institutions for the variables of the academic self-control model (general resourcefulness, academic resourcefulness, academic self-efficacy, preparedness, failure attributions, and university adaptation). The goals of the research were to test the following: (1) the full academic self-control model using a large sample of undergraduate students to predict university adaptation and final grades; (2) if the pathways of association implied by the model are equally predictive regardless of whether students are direct entry, university transfer, or college transfer; and (3) if the means of the variables differed among these three groups. Results replicated previous studies showing that, for the entire sample, general resourcefulness, preparedness, explanatory style for failure, and academic self-efficacy were strongly predictive of academic resourcefulness, which, in turn, was strongly associated with university adaptation and grade. Moreover, the indirect and direct pathways of the model were found to be equivalent for the three student groups. Comparisons of the groups’ means for the psychological variables revealed the university transfer group to have the most favourable scores followed by the college transfer group. The findings suggest that both college and university transfer students bring valuable skills to undergraduate programs and the keys to their university adaptation and academic achievement are the same as for direct entry students.

As the Canadian Journal of Higher Education celebrates its fiftieth anniversary, this article takes the measure of the researchpublished so far on higher education administration and reflects on future work. The study examined the 38 articles on highereducation administration published by the Journal between 1971 and 2020 to characterize how administration has been investigated and theorized since the Journal’s inception. The article discusses the topics that have captured the attention of scholars and the frameworks and methods they selected for their investigations. Overall, the body of work published by the Journal in its first 50 years of existence paints a nuanced portrait of higher education administration where administrators appear simultaneously powerless and powerful. The article suggests promising areas of inquiry based on its findings and discusses implications for editors, reviewers, and authors.

The study of transfer in Canadian post-secondary education (PSE) is a fractured terrain, with vast inter-provincial differences and deep schisms between participating communities. At the time of writing, there exists no comprehensive review of the vast, fragmented literature examining the predictors and outcomes of Canadian transfer students, thus complicating the advancement of this subfield. Through this piece, we provide a bird’s eye view of a diverse group of 100+ academic articles, policy and institutional research reports on this topic, published from 1968-2020. We use this review to trace the evolution of this complex sub-field in Canada, outlining the major findings, methodological approaches, gaps, and future challenges that Canadian researchers will face as they attempt to improve our understanding of transfer. Drawing on examples from the American and European contexts, we illustrate the need for more robust administrative data sources and methodological sophistication in Canadian transfer research. We also cite inclusive inter-sector collaboration as a key strategy to improve research in this field.

This paper traces the history of health promotion on campuses, including the initial attempts at providing oversight over student behaviour to the increased need for further supports after the influx of World War II veterans onto campuses, to the focus on providing a much broader range of supports that consider well-being from a holistic stance. We describe the current context where campuses are beginning to take a more intentional and organized approach to well-being across Canada; for context, we have included a description of our recent study that explores impactful practices on Health Promotion campuses that have implemented the Okanagan Charter (2015) (Authors, in press). The immediate context with the evolving global pandemic, reliance on online learning, emphasis on diversity and increasing access for all will also be explored. Lastly, we suggest future directions for campuses to take to address the current pressures and how a network of campuses engaged in well-being efforts who are employing whole systems approaches can be a hopeful model for ensuring well-being on Canadian campuses in the future.
