Abstract: Using critical race counterstories (Yosso 2006), this study explores how six first-generation, Mexican–American students experienced their first-year transition to college based upon data collected across 18 longitudinal interviews. This study combines Ray's (American Sociological Review 84:26-53, 2019) theory of racialized organizations and Yosso's (Race Ethnicity and Education 8:69-91, 2005) theory of community cultural wealth (CCW) to offer how students used their familial and navigational capital despite facing institutional irresponsibility brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. Ultimately, participants experienced inconsistent and insufficient support by their universities when they needed it most, which forces one to consider whether college campuses are truly "homes" for all students.
