ABSTRACT

This paper highlights how a small group of minority students worked to take advantage of the privileges available once they were admitted to an elite school. The argument proposed is that, unlike their more privileged peers, minority students who have made it through the gateways of elite schools have to work out a salvation of privilege to level up their chances and aspirations of success. A grounded theory based on ‘working out the salvation of privilege’ is derived to examine the ways in which minority students in elite schools seize individual ways of self-saving their variegated disadvantages. The study tracked three students over a five-year period to explore the development of their aspirations and individual trajectories two years after they exited their schools. Despite the students’ efforts in self-saving, their ‘envisioned future’ became limited over time. All had to modify their options and expectations because their non-privileged background hindered their aspirations.

在精英学校解决特权问题:针对亚洲少数族裔学生的时间胶囊研究

摘要

本文重点介绍了一小群少数族裔学生如何利用他们被精英学校录取后的特权。所提出的论点是,与享有特权的同龄人不同,通过精英学校的大门的少数族裔学生必须设法拯救特权,以提高他们成功的机会和愿望。一个基于“拯救特权”的扎根理论被推导出来,以检验精英学校中的少数族裔学生如何抓住个人方式来自我拯救他们的各种劣势。该研究在五年内跟踪了三名学生,以探索他们离开学校两年后的愿望和个人轨迹的发展。尽管学生们努力自救,随着时间的推移,他们“设想的未来”变得有限。所有人都不得不修改他们的选择和期望,因为他们的非特权背景阻碍了他们的愿望。
