Abstract | Latinas are significantly underrepresented in doctoral programs in U.S. higher education institutions. While pursuing doctoral studies is a challenging experience for anyone, Latina doctoral students are particularly burdened with additional stressors in an academic environment that does not support Latina/o cultural values, such as "familismo" (familism) and "personalismo" (personalism). In the absence of a local network of Latina/o faculty and colleagues, Twitter may serve as a counter-space to support Latinas experiencing cultural incongruity and who are looking for ways to advocate for Latina/o communities. (As Provided). |
