Abstract The following reflection essay is about my journey as a Latina Criminologist and how service shapes my teaching and research. I share how my commitment to service is directly tied to my Latino roots and what I have learned from various academic communities. In addition, I reflect on how hidden forms of service that characterize faculty of color workloads can be devalued by universities.

Abstract This study examines how criminal justice majors taking courses during the COVID-19 pandemic perceive their future careers. These expectations are compared to those of students majoring in lab sciences and non-lab fields. Variation by race and ethnicity are also assessed. Data were obtained from 188 undergraduate students at a single institution in Spring 2021 and Fall 2021 using an online survey. Results indicated that students’ estimates of their future salaries and job availability were accurate to current labor market conditions. Hispanics anticipated higher salaries and more salary growth than non-Hispanics. Criminal justice majors were attracted to jobs based on potential to help others, challenge, job tasks, salary, and the fun, thrill, or excitement of the job. Health majors were more drawn to features like salary and job availability. Criminal justice students were more likely than others to note power as well as prestige, recognition, or status as appealing job features.

Abstract This essay is a reflection on the experiences of a Latino Associate Professor in higher education. I consider the trajectory from immigrant to graduate student and then professor, to entering the academy, the challenges of being a Latinx scholar and professor, and the support structures that have nurtured me throughout my career. I reflect on how I have changed throughout this journey and the lessons I have learned as a student, scholar, and teacher.

Abstract For young immigrants who are also college students, the sense of belonging impacts not only their integration in the host society, but their school community as well. Group membership has been associated with the sense of belonging, which in turn impacts the sense of self. Self-esteem, defined as a feeling of self-worth and self-respect, is considered to be fundamental to psychological well-being. This study explores feelings of belonging and membership of noncitizen students and the impact on their mental well-being. Data were drawn from 137 participants across multiple undergraduate campuses across the City University of New York (CUNY) system. Initial findings of the CUNY Belonging Study indicate that, consistent with existing research, noncitizen students’ immigration status impacts their ability to form a sense of belonging, and belonging and membership is related to the level of institutional support they receive.

Abstract While the Latinx student enrollment has dramatically risen in recent decades, a large share of Latinx adults remain without a college degree. Despite efforts by U.S. colleges and universities to recruit a diverse student body to create a better learning environment, many educational institutions are unable to retain Latinx students over time. The purpose of this article is to explore the barriers that many Latinx students face on the path to obtaining a college degree and to contextualize these challenges using an autoethnographic approach based on my experience as a Latina and second-generation immigrant. In my discussion, I provide recommendations for postsecondary institutions on how to increase the completion and graduation rates of Latinx students to advance Latinx success as one of the fastest growing demographic groups in the U.S.
