History and Vision
![Page 5: UndocuAlly Program for Educators: Developing Effective Partnerships between Faculty, Staff, and Undocumented Students AB540 & Undocumented Student Center.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d745503460f94a548e9/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
• During fall 2014 quarter, two focus groups were held in which 35 faculty, staff, and graduate students participated• Feedback was provided in two ways: individual
responses, group dialogue, and written group responses.
History: Our Process
![Page 6: UndocuAlly Program for Educators: Developing Effective Partnerships between Faculty, Staff, and Undocumented Students AB540 & Undocumented Student Center.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d745503460f94a548e9/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• The majority of definitions provided by participants that defined an undocumented student revolved within legal and political contexts• All responses provided by participants indicated negative
associations between experiences and challenges undocumented students face regarding, living a “life of secrecy.”

History: Educator Perspectives
![Page 7: UndocuAlly Program for Educators: Developing Effective Partnerships between Faculty, Staff, and Undocumented Students AB540 & Undocumented Student Center.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d745503460f94a548e9/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
• The responses that activated lively dialogue was provided by participants was regarding privilege, race, and positionality. • “‘Where are you from?’ Having to face that several times a
day, means you don’t fit here. You don’t fit into the cookie cutter Davis. The intent may not be malice, but the impact is making a student feel unwelcome.”
History: Educator Perspectives
![Page 8: UndocuAlly Program for Educators: Developing Effective Partnerships between Faculty, Staff, and Undocumented Students AB540 & Undocumented Student Center.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649d745503460f94a548e9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• Participants agreed that they felt a sense of helplessness for not being well versed in legal terminology and policies. They stated that the majority of the time, the student knows more than they do in relation to navigating campus resources. • “The student will be the expert, having gone through all the
campus departments, but the stress of having to teach me causes more stress.”
