Going to college is a major rite of passage in the United States. For many of New Mexico Highlands University (Highlands) students, going to college marks another watershed: they are first in their families to go to college. This paper describes students' culture at Highlands—a university where (ethnic) minorities form the majority of the student population. Using ethnographic data collected by and analyzed in collaboration with my students, the paper describes students' views of college life and culture at Highlands
