具体描述

Getting in is only half the battle. The Privileged Poor reveals how―and why―disadvantaged students struggle at elite colleges, and explains what schools can do differently if these students are to thrive.

The Ivy League looks different than it used to. College presidents and deans of admission have opened their doors―and their coffers―to support a more diverse student body. But is it enough just to admit these students? In The Privileged Poor, Anthony Jack reveals that the struggles of less privileged students continue long after they’ve arrived on campus. Admission, they quickly learn, is not the same as acceptance. This bracing and necessary book documents how university policies and cultures can exacerbate preexisting inequalities and reveals why these policies hit some students harder than others.

Despite their lofty aspirations, top colleges hedge their bets by recruiting their new diversity largely from the same old sources, admitting scores of lower-income black, Latino, and white undergraduates from elite private high schools like Exeter and Andover. These students approach campus life very differently from students who attended local, and typically troubled, public high schools and are often left to flounder on their own. Drawing on interviews with dozens of undergraduates at one of America’s most famous colleges and on his own experiences as one of the privileged poor, Jack describes the lives poor students bring with them and shows how powerfully background affects their chances of success.

If we truly want our top colleges to be engines of opportunity, university policies and campus cultures will have to change. Jack provides concrete advice to help schools reduce these hidden disadvantages―advice we cannot afford to ignore.

##整本书都在翻来覆去地打苦情牌，所以是怎样，让读者给你水滴筹啊？

##文字没的说。第三章作为留学生读着读着也很容易共情。第二章看到一个特别像我自己做TA的一个例子，有点愤怒。决定放进本科生intro syllabus

##很喜欢作者对于工薪甚至贫困阶层的孩子在精英大学生活的探讨，话说作者本科就读的Amherst College 就在母校旁边，每次去都能感受到扑面而来的中上层白人精英主义的气息... 最欣赏的片段莫过于doubly disadvantaged的学生对于office hour的恐惧和对于教授的deferrance. 想着自己本科刚来某文理学院的时候常常震惊于周围美国同学和教授在办公室自如地分享八卦，而我却在担心她会不会占用了宝贵的office hour时间，不敢和教授聊学术之外的生活，生怕浪费了他们的时间。还好感谢本科的导师们，都went out of their way to help, 也算某种程度上弥补了学生们自身社会阶级的cultural capital的gap吧

##作者是穷学生出身，成为学者之后研究穷学生怎样能更好适应精英大学的生活，以求让更多的穷学生像他一样成功实现阶级跃迁，真的很empowering。本书很好读，作者很有逻辑地把学生的testimony串起来了。"Access is not inclusion"。第三章真是令人震惊，鼓励穷学生做宿舍清洁工来赚钱这种政策太智障了，还好有作者这种学者让弱势群体得以发声，就这点就值得力荐。本书结论不是鼓励更多穷学生读私校成为privileged poor，而是鼓励更多公校能赋权。最后的attachments也很有意思，作者留白了很多值得研究的地方，比如亚裔完全不在研究样本里。从社达社会出来的学生的cultural shock和美国穷学生居然是差不多的，比如我看到office hours那一点感到很有共鸣。

##去听book talk的时候觉得心都碎了。看的时候就反正也心情沉重，还是蛮容易共情double disadvantaged and privileged poor两个贫困学生群体在精英学校面临的各种结构性困境，PP学生因为在私校积累了文化资本能更好地熟练运用institutional resources(office hour, networking, seeking help, at ease with the rich), 但面临金钱相关问题时PP和DD一样无力：spring break famine, 做学生清洁员感受到的区隔和领免费文化活动票时隔开的队伍，一样触目惊心和让人愤怒。也很喜欢Jack写方法memo时候提到没想到强度很高的访谈对他自己来说感情上也非常有挑战。

##这种讲美国学生cultural capital 和精英学校运作规则理解的书真是读一本等于读全部……感觉主旨的那些 cultural capital - ease，中产非中产文化资本的差别，别人都写过了……抄录一点最后政策建议：高中培育有利于上大学的文化，大学阶段为学生提供更多的生活补助，多提供制度性的学生和老师接触的机会，把unspoken rules明确化，等等。

##主要提出了poor students大类里有细分的privileged poor的概念。这些privileged poor因为高中时期进入了更为精英和高层的环境，在进入精英大学之后与peer和校里的adults沟通会更游刃有余，相较于doubly disadvantaged来说。但他们仍旧摆脱不了贫穷带来的物质上的障碍。其中第二章关于与老师、admin staff的交互让人十分能relate。对于doubly disadvantaged来说，是否真的应该宁做鸡头，不做凤尾呢？
