註釋This report has explores the research literature on Latina/o students throughout the four segments of the educational pipeline: K-12, community college, undergraduate, and graduate. The Latina/o educational pipeline does not ensure a smooth flow of students from one end of the conduit to the other, but a broken trickle of fewer and fewer students graduating from each level. Among Latina/o students, Chicana/os and Salvadorans have the lowest attainment rates at every segment of the pipeline. These students are not being prepared to make a successful transition into high school, resulting in tremendous dropout rates. High dropout rates continue for the students who do make it to college. Latina/o students are severely under represented at four-year colleges and universities and in graduate and professional programs. (Contains 12 notes, 10 figures, and 2 tables.)
