Happy #resisteteamtuesday! Today was our last team

Happy #resisteteamtuesday! Today was our last team meeting of the semester before folks start to go on winter break. We celebrated our collective accomplishments for the semester with some snacks and delicious pozole.

Happy #resistesdsu #TeamTuesday! Today we'd like to highlight our latest publication by @felishaherreravillarreal, @drvictoriarod, @drakovats, @aileencerrillos, and @bri_marquez, centering the voices of women of color in STEM who navigated Hispanic-Serving Institutions.

"It Was Hard, and It Still Is . . .": Women of Color Navigating HSI STEM Transfer Pathways," was published in AERA Open @aera_edresearch in response to a special topic call for papers focused on "Intersectionality in Hispanic-Serving Institutions: Understanding the Complexities among Latinxs and BIPOC in HSIs" (Special Topic Editors: @ginaanngarcia & @dra.mgc). Read more about the experiences of WOC in STEM at HSIs by visiting the link in our bio.

As we continue to celebrate National #HSIsWeek, we wanted to highlight our newest #resistesdsu research team member Melissa Cabrera. Learn more about Melissa's work and her educational trajectory on this #resisteteamtuesday!

Melissa Cabrera (she/her/hers) is a first-year Master’s student at San Diego State University in the Postsecondary Educational Leadership: Student Affairs program. Melissa is a recent graduate of the University of San Diego, where she received her Bachelor’s degree in Sociology and Communication Studies. As an undergraduate student, she was involved in student leadership through her role as a resident assistant, first-generation student club president, and other club executive board roles. Melissa also participated in the McNair Scholars program, during which she had the opportunity to conduct research projects with faculty mentors. Her first research project investigated the communication strategies people are most likely to employ to reduce uncertainty in face-to-face interactions, and how that might be impacted by demographics. Her second research project focused on the ways students from marginalized groups are impacted by diversity initiatives in higher education. This research sparked her interest in higher education and the experiences of students with marginalized identities in postsecondary institutions. As a Latina first-generation student, Melissa is a strong advocate for accessible and equitable education and she is eager to be able to conduct education-focused research with the RESISTE team.

I'm feeling incredibly grateful for my @resiste_sdsu familia. Today they took the time to show their appreciation and celebrated my recent recognition as @sandiegostateuniversity Division of Research & Innovation Postdoc Spotlight @sdsucoe @sdsu_rf @sdsuresearch

Check out the link to read more about my journey and the amazing work that I get to do with our research center director/PI @felishaherreravillarreal and the entire RESISTE team. It is truly an honor to have the opportunity to co-lead and collaborate with these scholars. This work would not be possible without the contributions of each and every person on our team - postdocs, graduate and undergraduate researchers, and our research affiliates. So glad that my own journey as a scholar led me back to my hometown in San Diego - close to my family, friends, and community. #resisteteamtuesday #resistesdsu

She is also the current president of the SDSU Refugee Aid Initiative as well as the social coordinator for the SDSU Middle-Eastern and North-African Student Union. Her passion for helping people with diverse backgrounds and creating an inclusive community is reflected in her current occupations and her leadership roles at SDSU. As a transfer student, Maria is well-aware of the obstacles many students encounter when transferring from a community college to a university, which is why she wants to provide support to other transfer students during this challenging process. Maria plans to either obtain a Master’s degree or apply to law school after completing her undergraduate education.

Dr. Krystal Lira is currently part of the ALRISE project (Accelerate Latinx Representation In STEM Education with Institutional Intentionality and Capacity Building for Experiential Learning (NSF HRD-2120021). The goal of this project is to understand the role that community colleges play in STEM pathways for Latinx students’ experiential learning outcomes. Prior to joining RES-ISTE, Dr. Lira was a lead research assistant on two federally funded projects (NSF & NIH) investigating the effects of motivation, curriculum, and campus support programs on students’ persistence and achievement outcomes in STEM fields. During her doctoral studies at Michigan State University, Dr. Lira served as the equity graduate assistant in the Educational Psychology and Educational Technology program where she worked with the program director to implement equitable program structures and interrupt various forms of systemic oppression. Dr. Lira is passionate about teaching and mentoring and has taught undergraduate and graduate level courses for over 5 years and has served as a mentor for various undergraduate research training experiences (e.g., SROP at MSU; UURAF at MSU). Dr. Lira’s research focuses on understanding how social and personal identities, and the intersection of those identities, can help broaden participation of diverse student in STEM fields.
Dr. Lira is a first-generation, Mexican American woman from Los Angeles, CA. She initially pursued her interests in education and psychology at Cerritos Community College, and later transferred to California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) where she earned her B.A. in Psychology.
