Documenting the collaborative work of staff at the University of
Texas Rio Grande Valley over the course of several years, this text
explores the many ways in which teachers and faculty must engage
with the institutional designation of Hispanic-Serving Institution
(HSI). In doing so, the volume illustrates how colleges of
education might provide Latinx students with the education,
support, and environment they require to thrive. As the number of
HSIs continues to grow, this text provides much needed insight into
how colleges and universities can better enact their HSI status.
Chapters document the practices and experiences of faculty as they
look to increase family engagement, utilize social and cultural
values to inform instruction, and acknowledge historically
institutionalized legacies of oppression and marginalization. By
highlighting the successes and challenges associated with serving
Latinx students, the text draws out the ways in which teacher
education and development might be structured at an HSI, in order
that the institutional identity is reflected in curricula,
pedagogy, scholarship, and community engagement. The text also
explains important distinctions between HSIs and other minority
serving institutions and illustrates the importance of HSIs to
Latinx students. This text will be of great interest to graduate
and postgraduate students, researchers, academics, libraries,
professionals and policy makers in the field of higher education,
multicultural education, educational leadership, teacher education
and Race & Ethnicity Studies.
