Using a transdisciplinary approach and community-based participatory research (CBPR) methodology, NSFS’s development included a diversely trained team working in collaboration with community partners. The systematic development of the research funding application and the iterative proposal-development process provide the basis for understanding greater opportunities for funding, and modifications needed to be successful with higher level sponsors of CBPR projects.

  • Democratic Erosion in Arizona and New Mexico By
    Democratic Erosion in Arizona and New Mexico A comparative analysis on the divergence of border states over time. Capstone Thesis with Professor Sperber by: Cristin Espinoza Published March 2018 at the University of Denver 1. Introduction. Whereas former US Supreme Court Chief Justice Brandeis once described US states as laboratories of democracy, recent scholarship on democratic erosion calls for scholars to reconsider the degree to which US states may also serve as laboratories for authoritarian practices (Levitsky & Ziblatt, 2018). In this paper, I seek to advance the understanding of democratic erosion. First, I establish empirical variation in the level of democratic erosion across two US southern border states: Arizona and New Mexico. I also demonstrate that although journalistic accounts often emphasize the role of demography and geography as determinants of voter suppression, redistricting, populist rhetoric, and even racial profiling practices in Arizona, the aforementioned factors are more similar than different across Arizona and New Mexico. Instead, I evaluate the hypothesis that long-run historical differences have influenced democratic erosion in these cases in ways previously overlooked. Specifically, I consider whether stronger Native American defense against white settlement in Arizona constituted a critical juncture that led to significantly more exclusive and ethnically charged state-level politics in Arizona than in neighboring New Mexico. To evaluate this hypothesis rigorously, I consider additional, competing hypotheses, including the possibility that rapid growth of Arizona’s older white population in recent decades, or differences in recent immigration flows may have steered the state in a less democratic direction than its neighbor. I find little evidence that these factors can explain what I demonstrate are longer-run political differences across state lines.

  • The Current Status and Future of Chicano Studies Programs: Are They Academically Sound*
    ED 273 429 RC 015 924 AUTHOR Rochin, Refugio I.; de la Torre, Adela TITLE The Current Status and Future of Chicano Studies Programs: Axe They Academically Sound? PUB DATE Apr 86 NOTE 34p.; Paper presented at the Annual Conference of the National Association for Chicano Studies (14th, El Paso, TH, April 10-12, 1986).

DESCRIPTORS Academic Rank (Professional); *Affirmative Action; *College Programs; Comparative Analysis; Educational Environment; Educational Opportunities; Educational Quality; *Enrollment Trends; *Ethnic Studies; Faculty Integration; Futures (of Society); Higher Education; *Program Content; Program Improvement; School Holding Power; School Surveys IDENTIFIERS *Chicano Studies; Mexican American Studies; *United States (Southwest) ABSTRACT Using survey responses and catalogue descriptions from 38 programs, the paper examines the current status of Chicano studies programs in four-year colleges/universities in the Southwest. Findings indicate many programs evolved from the civil rights legislation of the 1960s to address ethnic minority concerns and to offer curriculum in the humanities and social sciences but currently serve as a means for fulfilling Affirmative Action requirements and developing a community of Chicano scholars. Identified as problems affecting Chicano studies programs are low Chicano student enrollment, relatively poor student retention and completion of college degrees, paucity of Chicano faculty, and a negative environment for Affirmative Action. Most problems identified by Chicano respondents appear to revolve arouad the perception of little support for Affirmative Action. Most Chicano studies programs need and want more Chicano faculty and students oe their campuses. With more faculty present, the possibility of attracting (increasing enrollment) and serving (increasing retention) more Chicano students improves.

    Transcript Charla 005: Nine Questions for the Ninth President Perette: Welcome to Fireside Charla number 5 with Dr. Adela de la Torre, President ​ ​ ​ of SDSU, where we prepare the global citizens, compassionate leaders, and ethical innovators who will solve the world’s greatest challenges. Today we bring you a really fun episode: Nine Questions for Our Ninth President, inspired by her recent trip to Asia. SDSU student Ethan Garcia chats with the president about fun aspects of the trip and more serious topics like why international relationships are good for SDSU’s stature as a leading global institution, a key pillar in the president’s vision. Fireside Charla starts ​ ​ now! Ethan: Before we jump into it I just want to say, I know that you were in Asia. Can you ​ give us a little update on how that went? Adela: Well, the Asia trip was with the chancellor, Tim White, and nine other presidents. ​ And the focus was really to re-engage with our alumni in Taipei, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and then in Tokyo, Japan. I think it went very well. The alums that we met were so enthusiastic, they were truly our lost Aztecs who wanted to get reconnected. I think what also made it really a wonderful experience was it really showed the the opportunities for us to create programs so that our students here at San Diego State could have some meaningful internship opportunities, as well as create reciprocal relationships with universities and alums in Asia in ways that are really meaningful and impactful for our community.
