In The Latinx Guide to Graduate School Genevieve Negrón-Gonzales
and Magdalena L. Barrera provide prospective and current Latinx
graduate students in the humanities and social sciences fields with
a roadmap for surviving and thriving in advanced-degree programs.
They document the unwritten rules of graduate education that impact
Latinx students, demystifying and clarifying the essential
requirements for navigating graduate school that Latinx students
may not know because they are often the first in their families to
walk that path. Topics range from identifying the purpose of
graduate research, finding the right program, and putting together
a strong application to developing a graduate student identity,
cultivating professional and personal relationships, and mapping
out a post--graduate school career. The book also includes
resources for undocumented students. Equal parts how-to guide,
personal reflection, manifesto, and academic musing, this book
gives a culturally resonant perspective that speaks to the unique
Latinx graduate student experience.
