Alma Rodriguez
Ph.D. Student in Education, admitted Autumn 2024
Research Asst - Graduate, John Gardner CenterBioAlma Rodriguez is a third-year Ph.D. candidate at Stanford’s Graduate School of Education, specializing in Sociology of Education under the supervision of Dr. Anthony Lising Antonio. Alma is a DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) recipient who earned her Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with highest honors from the University of California, Berkeley. Her research interest focuses on the undocumented student population. During her undergrad, Alma completed her senior honor’s thesis under the supervision of the Sociology department at UC Berkeley.
At Stanford University, Alma's research sits at the intersection of social movements, undocumented student activism, and higher education. Her work examines how undocumented students in California engage in hidden forms of activism and strategic adaptation, navigating visibility, risk, and resistance in response to shifting political climates. Drawing on non-visible, everyday activism and social movement scholarship, Alma explores how undocumented students resist, and continue to exercise their political voice when visibility imposes existential risks.
A qualitative scholar by training, Alma conducts ethnographic fieldwork inside Dream Centers, centering the lived experiences and political agency of undocumented students as her primary unit of analysis.
