College students whose parents did not attend college have significantly higher attrition rates than do continuing-generation college students. Understanding perceived opportunity for and acceptability of self-expression may enhance efforts to improve first-generation students’ educational outcomes. Data from a U.S. national survey revealed college satisfaction positively correlated with comfort sharing ideas and opinions in class. This correlation was significantly stronger for first-generation students, who were less likely to report expressing their ideas or opinions in class, despite being more likely to value being encouraged to do so. When first-generation students participate despite feeling uncomfortable, they are less likely than continuing-generation peers to report doing so despite thinking their opinions are important for others to hear.
