Hello. I'm Beth Carroll. Welcome to New Hampshire Outlook.
In this program, we'll look at the many transitions students face in getting through middle school --moving on to highschool - and then eventually heading off the college.
In many rural areas of New Hampshire students leave their hometown elementary schools to attend regional middle schools
which brings students from diverse social and ecnomic backgrounds together. It can mean a lot of challenges.
Producer Phil Vaughn talked to the author and participants of a study that looked at the impact of the change.
script iconIntro Latino
Return to index of stories...
There are some 23-thousand Latinos living in N-H.
A growing number of them are reaching college-age and running into financial and cultural roadblocks as they knock on college doors.
In October 2004-- The New Hampshire College and University Council sponsored a gathering of Latino students from several high schools on the campus of Saint Anselm College in Manchester.
As Chip Neal tells us -- the get-together was designed to give them some advice and exposure to a college environment.

The NH College & University Council also has a grant program called Individual Development Accounts or I-D-A's.
The program matches every dollar the student saves for college -- with three-dollars from the council.
Students can save as much as 2-thousand dollars and be in line for a 6-thousand dollar match.
script iconIntro College Primer

Preparing for life after high school and making the transition to college can also be daunting. Leaving behind friends, and family and going off to explore a new place requires some adjusting.
How do you prepare for all those changes?
An associate dean of the College of Liberal Arts at the University of New Hampshire has written a book called "A College Primer."
It's designed to help guide students and parents on the academic pressures students will soon be facing.
The author, John Kirkpatrick is here with us now.
Q PROF. KIRKPATRICK: It's a small volume, under 50 pages -- filled with some pretty elementary information.
How UNPREPARED for college are today's high schoolers??
script iconCollege Primer
Return to index of stories...
Q You've been working with first-year college students for 20 years.
Give me a sense of what their EXPECTATIONS are when they get to school?
Q Have things changed in terms of student's EXPECTATIONS about college over the years. Mass Media has certainly focused on that age group.shows like "90210" "Felicity" -- about college life?
Has that DISTORTED students views or helped?
Q Biggest MYTH you find students harbor?
Q Did a Graph on High School vs College life.
Reading: In HS: moderate College Heavy
Time Managment: HS: Managed for you College: Managed by you
Class size HS: 20-50 College: 15 to 500
Note Taking HS: encouraged College absolutely Necessary
Q One of your quotes: "You Snooze, you lose, and few professors
will be inclined to wake you".
Q Rely upon faculty and academic advisors for Direction in course selection NOT roomates, and classmates. Comon problem?
Q What kind of Feedback have you gotten??
Q What can PARENTS do to help their kids make the ADJUSTMENT?
===
JOHN KIRKPATRICK: Thank you -- hopefully students will take heed of your advice as they embark on the adventures of college.
