Reviews

As a dean, I find this book to be a great resource for administrators, faculty, and staff in higher education. Experts in the field, the authors do an excellent job discussing theory and practical applications to support LGBTQ+ persons with multiple minoritized identities at various higher education settings.--Y. Barry Chung, PhD, Dean, College of Education, San Diego State University, San Diego, CA Informative. Insightful. Imaginative. These scholars and practitioners use history, policy, research, and case study to narrate the complex experiences of LGBTQ+ college students. The text should be a resource in undergraduate classrooms and graduate training, as well as in professional development and policy formation in higher education. The authors provide permission for us to ask important, difficult questions so that we can dream differently about LGBTQ+ inclusion on college campuses.--Carlton E. Green, PhD, Green Psychological Services, Largo, MD Loaded with empirical research, informed by minority stress and critical race theories, and focused upon practical application in this unprecedented moment of pandemic, social disruption, and unrest, this volume offers an unflinching and comprehensive analysis of students and institutional contexts that are too often left behind.--Carla A. Pfeffer, PhD, MSW, Director of the Consortium for Sexual and Gender Minority Health and Associate Professor, School of Social Work, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI
