“…If students are to be supported in ways that are 'personal' to them, then we need to ensure that tutors understand the role that culture plays in shaping the educational experience for all students. Higher education tutors must engage in mutual learning, see students as whole beings (Preece and Bokhari, 1996), and recognise the importance of ethnic identity and its effect on educational experience (Beekhoven, et al, 2004). It may be necessary to establish special mentoring arrangements for minority ethnic students.…”

There is a lack of focused research on the educational experience of minority ethnic nursing students in the United Kingdom. This small scale mixed–method study has shown that in one institution, South Asian students entered training at a younger age than White students but had broadly similar levels of attainment and completion. Qualitative data suggest that although South Asian and White students share many common experiences, the cultural background of South Asian students may have a considerable effect on their academic life, sometimes creating particular tensions and difficulties. Several themes are explored, including choosing nursing, negotiating marriage, responding to family obligations, relating to fellow students and accessing support. Students expressed the importance of peer group and personal tutor support to their academic success. Understanding the student experience is important and should help institutions to develop culturally sensitive support systems.

“…Dit betekent dat het opgestelde theoretische model helaas maar een deel van de percepties van studenten over financiële factoren verklaart en dus nog veel zaken over het hoofd lijkt te zien. Dit is echter gebruikelijk voor dit soort analyses (Beekhoven, 2002).…”

Approximately half of the U.S. population currently lives in suburban locales, one-fourth in big cities, andanother fourth in small towns and rural areas. Hodgkinson (2003) indicates that the U.S. population isundergoing an increasing migration into rural areas. This relocation holds many challenging andominous implications for urban and rural higher education as colleges and universities struggle to meetthe divergent needs of shifting demographics. Public community colleges are especially impacted bythese changes in student populations.
