The Rural College Student Experience is back! In Episode 2, host Dr. Matt Newlin is joined by co-host Clayton Land to discuss social class issues for rural students in college. Clayton is a senior at Yale University pursuing a double major in Global Affairs and History. Clayton is from a small town in central Kentucky called Lawrenceburg and is one of the first people from his community to attend an Ivy League institution. Being from a small town has shaped much of his involvement on campus and career aspirations which includes rural international development in Latin America.
In the second part of the episode, Clayton and Matt are joined by Dr. Sonja Ardoin, an associate professor and the Student Affairs Administration program director at Appalachian State University. Among her many research interests, Sonja studies social class identity and college access and success for rural and first-generation college students. Sonja discusses her roots as a first-generation college student from a working class background in rural Louisiana and how it informed her college student to Ph.D. journey. MORE
