Abstract | Increasing numbers of ethnic minority students are attending college (Department of Education, 2015). Many students of Color entering undergraduate institutions may be a statistical minority in an educational setting for the first time. Therefore, they may become especially aware of the stereotypes and prejudices that others may hold about their ethnic group (Alvarez, Blume, Cervantes, & Thomas, 2009; McGuire, McGuire, Child, & Fujioka, 1978). The distress that minority students of Color may experience on college campuses can also relate to academic and psychological wellbeing (Steele, 1997; Steele & Aronson, 1995). The present research studied the relationship between campus climate and general perceived stress among university students and explored whether protective factors, including ethnic identity and sense of belonging, moderate this relationship. The campus experiences of university students in general, students of Color, and an especially vulnerable population of students identified through their first-generation student status were examined in this study. The study included 112 undergraduate college student participants recruited from a small metropolitan-based diverse university. Results indicated that students of Color, White students, and first-generation students responded to measures of campus climate differently, suggesting that existing measures do not adequately capture the experiences and needs of diverse student populations. Implications for future research and psychological practice are discussed. [The dissertation citations contained here are published with the permission of ProQuest LLC.
