In a study of 2,991 college students, researchers found significant differences between Latino and non-Latino students using MANOVA and chi-square statistics. Latino students were more likely to embrace diversity than non-Latino students, and were more likely to be concerned about financing their college educations. In addition, they were more likely than non-Latino students to work while in college. Finally, there were differences in the perception of the likely causes of departure between Latino and non-Latino students. Latino students were more likely to believe they would leave school because of a lack of finances, and because of a perceived lack of academic ability. The authors discuss how these differences in attitudes about diversity, and differences in academic preparation and financial situations, affect Latino students. They then ask the question: How can student affairs professionals lessen the combined burdens of minority status stress, finances, and college adjustment for Latino students?
