To date I have also actively worked with Group 3 in the reading and
development of a book report on A Framework for Understanding
Poverty by Dr. Ruby K. Payne. This project has been enlightening given
my path this semester in working with a G2C STEM course committee,
for in her work Dr. Payne focuses on in-depth descriptions of
generational and situational poverty, and on the differences, and
hidden rules, of the poor, middle-class and wealthy, and the ways in
which these realities influence student success. I know that this book
and group project will aid my ability to assist in the G2C initiative, and
to better guide, teach and mentor students in my future as an
educational leader.
