Education values of minorities
in Niagara County CC
Michael Evans
SOC 270-Community Studies
Photo Walk Slide Show
• The topic of choice for my photo walk reflection is the value of
education within minority groups.
• In chapters nine and ten, Palen describes the role of education
amongst minorities and their impact on the class of minorities overall
success
• I decided to see how education plays a role in minority groups on
campus at Niagara County Community College
Many who attend Niagara County Community College are statistically
already at a disadvantage.
Niagara county community college has shown only a 28 percent
graduation rate and an 18 percent transfer rate in the 2016-17
academic year

• In the article “Ethnic and Racial Minorities & Socioeconomic Status”
by the American Psychological Association , statistical data is used to
paint the picture of the educational environment for different ethnic
groups.
• “African-Americans and Latinos are more likely to attend high-
poverty schools than Asian-Americans and Caucasians”
• “From 2000 to 2013 the dropout rate between racial groups
narrowed significantly.”
• “However, high school dropout rates among Latinos remain the
highest, followed by African-Americans and then Whites”;
• “In addition to socioeconomic realities that may deprive students of
valuable resources, high-achieving African American students may be
exposed to less rigorous curriculums, attend schools with fewer
resources, and have teachers who expect less of them academically
than they expect of similarly situated Caucasian students”
• In my study I interviewed 3 people of 3 different minority groups that
dorm at Niagara County Community College to see what values of
education were placed on them.
• Niagara County Community College hosts a diverse group of people
from different ethnic backgrounds in the dormitory setting.
• Each person, although all in college, has shown a different value for
education.
• Many who attend Niagara County Community College are statistically
already at a disadvantage.
• Niagara county community college has shown only a 28 percent
graduation rate and an 18 percent transfer rate in the 2016-17
academic year
Woman Posing in Dorms
• I interviewed a woman who is first generation in America from japan. she stated that any sort of education
allows her to be hired and more importantly taken seriously. She feels pressured to fulfill the stigma of
having a high degree because of her Asian background.
• Her mother always pressured her to chase an education, so she can be independent and take care of
herself. She doesn’t feel that an education is necessary for success but feels that an education opens more
doors to be successful.
• She has been attending Niagara County Community College for two years.
Woman Cooking in dorms
• During my observations I interviewed a women who dorms at Niagara County Community
College, about how much she values education
• When asked how valuable an education is she claimed her education is valuable only when
looking to qualify for a job.
• She claimed that its just what she was taught, to go to school and get an education. She feels that
an education isn’t necessary for success but makes the path a lot easier.
• When asked how her family values education she claimed they don’t. Her parents didn’t go to
school and it was always an option for her to attend a higher education. She is the only one of 13
kids to receive a higher education
Woman laughing in dorms
• When interviewing another women who dorms she said education is important
because without it takes away job opportunities.
• She feels that an education is not necessary for success.
• She had her parents push her a lot to pursue an education.
