College Student Civic Development and Engagement at a Hispanic Serving Institution

Abstract

This study compares the civic development and engagement of Cuban American and non-Hispanic White college students at a large, urban Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI). The findings indicate that both ethnic groups civically develop and engage in similar ways at Hispanic Serving Institution. However, when it comes to political discussions, there are minor differences between both ethnic groups. © 2008, SAGE Publications. All rights reserved.
