Education reveals how the institutional culture and social networks
of universities influence the academic success of underrepresented
students. This book is based on a qualitative study that integrates
a sociological and higher education theoretical framework to

of institutional cultural capital and social capital during their
college experience. This book offers an innovative mentoring model
that illuminates how students can navigate the hidden curriculum of
higher education. In addition, the book provides practical
strategies on how to avoid academic mine fields in order to thrive
in college. This book is written for administrators, faculty,
student affairs professionals and students to promote retention,
academic success, and create a more transparent, inclusive, and
equitable higher education system. See here for an article by the
