Abstract
  • In this thesis, Elizabeth Summer Wimberly details the profile of generation 1.5 students as a group of students who can need extra support in higher education. Generation 1.5 students stand distinct from both international students and native, monolingual students. As such, placing generation 1.5 students in either a mainstream or ESL First Year Composition course can be both ill-fitting and detrimental. In light of this, this thesis considers different models and suggestions are considered as means of better supporting generation 1.5 students, including linked courses, co-lingual classrooms, focusing on the theme of identity in writing, and building community. These models and suggestions come from both two- and four-year colleges and universities and a case study of a college access program.
