Latino Congregations and Youth Educational Expectations
Latinos constitute a large segment of the US population with relatively high levels of religious adherence and low levels of educational attainment vis-a-vis other racial and ethnic groups. Sociological findings on the relationship between religion and education are largely mixed. This chapter examines the gap between these two bodies of research denoting the positive and negative associations between religion and educational outcomes by analyzin…
Citizenship, Religion, and Protest
Does religion promote or deter political activism? Most arguments and evidence on this question do not account for variation by social position. We argue that for the 2006 spring immigrant rights marches understanding the influence of religion on participation requires a careful assessment of the relationship between various dimensions of religion and the risks, barriers, and motivations that are rooted in citizenship status of potential particip…
Latino Congregations and Youth Educational Expectations
Prior research on religion and education in the United States suggests two broad findings: a positive relationship between religious participation and educational outcomes, and a negative association between affiliation with Conservative Protestant and Pentecostal groups and educational attainment. Yet, no known study has examined if these relationships persist in Latina/o congregations. In this study, we examine the association between multileve…

Little progress has been made to increase Latina/o faculty representation in theological education. In this study, 33 interviews with Latina/o theological faculty identify supports and challenges to their scholarly development. Latino critical theory guides the analysis. Narratives reveal faculty experiences with oppression, challenging dominant ideology, commitment to social justice, and the use of their experiential knowledge in academe. A disc…
Religious Involvement and Educational Outcomes
Previous research has observed that religious participation is positively related to a wide variety of adolescent outcomes, including academic achievement, but relatively little is known about why this is the case. We focus on a group of related potential explanations for why religious involvement improves educational outcomes. We examine whether religious participation enhances academic outcomes among teens by the way in which it shapes their so…
Balancing School With the Call to Community Service
Hispanic seminary students in American theological schools face considerable challenges as they work to pursue their degrees. Many balance service to the ministry and community involvement with the rigors of academia. Cultural barriers leave students pulled between two worlds. Focus groups of Hispanic seminary students and data drawn from the Latino/a Seminary Student Survey were used to develop suggestions in providing more supportive and cultur…
