Postdoctoral scholars are particularly vulnerable to sexual harassment because of their early career stage, a lack of clear institutional policies, and dyadic relationships with their advisors, among other factors. Recent surveys and listening sessions have reiterated this issue, indicating that workplace bullying, harassment, and discrimination…

Peer reviewedSara Cagliero; Barbara Biglia; Jordi Bonet-Martí – Gender and Education, 2025
Feminist research and mass demonstrations on campuses have proven that Higher Education Institutions are not violence-free spaces.

D. Chase J. Catalano; Daniel Tillapaugh; Roman Christiaens; Sy Simms – Review of Higher Education, 2024
Using Ahmed's (2012) scholarship on diversity work and institutional life as a conceptual framework, we examine how LGBTQ+ social justice educational intervention (SJEI) facilitators described the challenges of their role. We found LGBTQ+ SJEI facilitators descriptions of their role revealed institutional dynamics that undermine purported support…

Foste, Zak, Ed.; Tevis, Tenisha L., Ed. – Stylus Publishing LLC, 2022
College and university administrators are increasingly called to confront the deeply entrenched racial inequities in higher education. To do so, corresponding attention must be given to historical and contemporary manifestations of whiteness in higher education and student affairs. This book bridges theoretical and practical considerations…

Eric Dusseault – ProQuest LLC, 2024
This study explores how aesthetic decisions influence community college presidents. Aesthetic choices communicate powerful messages (McArdle-Clinton, 2008). These messages influence a campus community, affecting access, cost, decision, and equity (Bouillard & Deslandes, 2015; Connor & Schrecker, 2010; Fairclough, 1995; James, 2013). These…

Valandra; LaShawnda Fields; Warrington Sebree; Whitney Sober – Race, Ethnicity and Education, 2024
In the 1960s, Black student protests of racism through sit-ins, building occupations, and demands for the resignation of university top administrators spurred the creation of ethnic studies and diversity programs on white university campuses in the United States. These efforts did not, unfortunately, dismantle entrenched structural racism. Black…

HSIs are largely determined by Latinx enrollment and are not connected to a uniting mission or definition of what it means to serve Latinx students. Consequently, HSIs continue to be saturated with predominantly white faculty who may or may not be interested in eradicating white dominance. Researchers have suggested that white normativity…

Abrica, Elvira J.; Hatch-Tocaimaza, Deryl; Rios-Aguilar, Cecilia – Journal of Diversity in Higher Education, 2023
Campus climates are often described as "hostile" for racially minoritized populations. However, growing recognition of complexities associated with intersecting and interwoven systems of social oppression compel the field of higher education to move away from overly simplistic portrayals of postsecondary environments as…

Patriotic education plays a crucial role in the national policies of many countries, focusing on students as the primary beneficiaries and educational institutions as the main platforms for its implementation. Despite its importance, there is limited research on how students engage with patriotic initiatives. This study explores how patriotic…

Philip J. Rosenbaum; Richard E. Webb – Journal of College Student Mental Health, 2024
Responding to the call for papers on "The Future of College Student Mental Health," we analyze the current "crisis" in college student mental health, and we discuss how it is co-constructed by our students and we who are the faculty and the administrators. We identify three factors: (1) A shift from offering value-based…

Riley, Alexander – Academic Questions, 2021
When the verdict was announced in the case of "State of Minnesota v. Derek Michael Chauvin," the university at which the author is employed made an announcement, probably much like those emitted at other colleges and universities around the country. The campus was informed that the verdict was an indication not of the sound state of…

Rebecca Covarrubias – Educational Psychology Review, 2024
Belonging is personal and political. As a fundamental human need, belonging is about self-acceptance and about feeling "accepted" by others. And yet, this process of acceptance is inextricably tied to structures of power that work to include and exclude. Structures of whiteness within higher education systems, for example, relegate…

Loneliness was declared a national epidemic in May 2023 and an international global threat in November 2023. Sense of belonging, or lack thereof, can greatly contribute to loneliness. Students who feel a sense of belonging at their institution tend to be more engaged and experience higher success rates, which can lead to increased persistence and…
