Despite efforts to widen participation, first-in-family students,
as an equity group, remain severely under-represented in higher
education internationally. This book explores and analyses the
gendered and classed subjectivities of 48 Australian students in
the First-in-Family Project serving as a fresh perspective to the
study of youth in transition. Drawing on liminality to provide
theoretical insight, the authors focus on how they engage in
multiple overlapping and mutually informing transitions into and
from higher education, the family, service work, and so forth.
While studies of class disadvantage and widening participation in
HE remains robust, there is considerably less work addressing the
gendered experiences of first-in-family students.
