Abstract
ABSTRACT First-generation Latinx faculty representing various institutional types (i.e., research-intensive, public, private, and community college) share counterstories of their educational experiences of doctoral programs and the professoriate. Guided by funds of knowledge framework, we share counterstories from lived experiences, revealing “roses and thorns” of being first-generation graduates and navigating the journey to and through faculty life. We share recommendations for Latinx scholars interested in the professoriate, including those transitioning from student affairs administration into faculty roles or dual roles as administrators and faculty. We also offer recommendations for institutional actors interested in recruiting, holistically supporting, and retaining their first-generation Latinx faculty.
