The purpose of this study was to gain a better understanding of adult Latino university students' attitudes towards and experiences in American schools. Five participant adult Latino university students took part in an interview with me in which my interviewees discussed and relayed information about the formation of their Latino identity, and their experiences in American schools, especially focusing on the participants' perceptions of language choice and teachers' attitudes and acceptance of them. The benefit of this study would be the advancement of knowledge in the area of Latino education, which may help enrich the academic lives of Latinos and equip school faculty and administrators to better understand their educational needs on a deeper level. 2013-06-14 English text University of Toledo / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=toledo1363092440 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=toledo1363092440 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
