LINGUISTIC MINORITY RESEARCH INSTITUTE

Co-sponsored by Arizona State University College of Education

• The 2006 UC LMRI Conference will focus on English Learners and Higher Education. For English learners to achieve parity with other students, they must have greater access to and success in higher education. Yet English learners are less likely to graduate from high school, attend college, and complete a four-year degree than other students.
• The 2006 conference will provide a forum for addressing such isses as preparation for college, access to two-year versus four-year colleges, and factors that promote or impede college completion for English learners.
