Session Abstract
Human Capital Theory – an applicable & universal theory to intergenerational mobility, first-generation college students and postsecondary education. To support intergenerational mobility, universities must promote the use of educational technology for rural students and avoid the adverse effects of globalization that may hinder the assumptions of HCT and intergenerational mobility of FGCS.
