虽然研究人员已经开始更仔细地研究工人阶级学生在本科教育中的经历，但我们对工人阶级学生在研究生院的经历知之甚少。通过对全国范围内攻读博士学位的研究生进行的调查。在社会学课程中，我们研究了工薪阶层学生在完成学位时比中产阶级学生面临更大的挑战或障碍的程度。我们发现工人阶级学生在学术融合和经济支持方面相对处于劣势。我们讨论这些发现对于改善工薪阶层学生的研究生经历的影响。
While researchers have begun to examine the experiences of working class students in undergraduate education more closely, we know less about the experiences of working class students in graduate school. Through a nationwide survey of graduate students enrolled in Ph.D. programs in Sociology, we examined the extent to which working class students face greater challenges or barriers in completing their degrees compared to their middle class peers. We found working class students to be comparatively disadvantaged in academic integration and financial support. We discuss the implications of these findings for improving the graduate school experiences of working class students.
