520 ▼a Undocumented students in the United States face uneven prospects for pursuing educational credentials beyond high school as a result of restrictive federal policies and divergent policies and practices across states, systems, and individual institutions of higher education. In the absence of comprehensive immigration reform to open more direct pathways to higher education for this marginalized student population, private foundations have funded a diverse set of initiatives that have effectively financed the construction of an emerging strategic action field (Fligstein & McAdam, 2012) within the broader field of higher education.In this dissertation, I explore the influence of private foundations on the undocumented student movement. Employing a grounded theory approach, I conducted two case studies-one of a prestigious four-year public flagship university and a second of a national network of community colleges established to share best practices, advocacy strategies, research, and other resources across varying institutional and state policy contexts. Findings show private foundations have played essential roles in constructing this emerging field during a time of rapidly shifting national immigration policy and political climate. However, foundations have focused their investment more on intermediaries-including community-based organizations, advocacy nonprofits, and on-campus undocumented student resource centers-than direct student support such as scholarships or lobbying campaigns. This approach enables foundations to play a traditional role in partnership with established and new institutions alike to build an emerging organizational field.I present implications for further research, professional practice within both higher education and philanthropy, and theoretical understanding of the complex relationships involved in building a field of support in a highly contentious context.
