Abstract/Contents

Abstract: In recent years, American universities have implemented an array of innovative strategies to enhance the academic success of students, especially those from underrepresented backgrounds. Yet first generation college and low-income (FLI) students continue to encounter barriers to success because they do not have authentic access to digital technology needed to graduate and be career-ready in our ever-changing economy. This paper analyzes the case of digital inequity among FLI students at Stanford University and recommends strategies to elected officials and university, business and foundation leaders to ensure that postsecondary students possess the digital devices they need to be successful.
