Series: Diverse Faculty in the Academy

Belonging in Higher Education: Perspectives and Lessons from Diverse Faculty illuminates autoethnographic stories of belonging in higher education in the United States. Chapter counter/stories are contributed by African American, Asian American, Latinx American, Indigenous American, and BIPOC individuals who work in diversity-related positions in the academy. Chapters are written by faculty who work in different institutional contexts such as Predominantly White Institutions (PWIs); minority-serving institutions (MSIs) like Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs); and institutional types such as community colleges, teaching-focused, and research-focused institutions. Chapter authors represent a range of diversities, coming from a variety of inter- and transdisciplinary backgrounds in terms of their fields of study and research foci, including Education, Psychology, Sociology, and Gender Studies. The counter/narratives in the book celebrate diverse experiences and offer unique and useful insights about how to foster what foreword author, Michael Eric Dyson, refers to as “deep belonging,” particularly for those who have been ostracized, marginalized, or expelled while working in higher education. This critical volume is an essential reading for researchers, faculty, administrators, and graduate students in Education, Sociology, Psychology, Student Affairs, African American Studies, and Asian American Studies. Additionally, it offers crucial insights for individuals who are key stakeholders in foregrounding policy that centers belonging for diverse faculty.

Reviews for Belonging in Higher Education: Perspectives and Lessons from Diverse Faculty

"""Belonging in Higher Education is a vital piece of scholarship that centers the voices and experiences of diverse faculty who will be the future face of academia. Faculty leaders and university administrators must begin to listen carefully to the experiences of belonging and longing that diverse faculty powerfully share in this important and timely book."" Kevin Roxas, Ph.D, Dean and Professor of Woodring College of Education, Western Washington University, USA. ""Belonging in Higher Education is the book I wished I had before I began my academic career. The authors present multiple viewpoints on the desires, disappointments, and disdain for belonging within university settings. The voices of faculty of color are powerful. The narratives here are more than an academic collection of work but testimonies of humanity. The book benefits university leaders, policy makers, graduate students, and university faculty, especially faculty of color, whose continued agency makes belonging an action in higher education."" LaGarrett King, Ph.D, Director, Center for K-12 Black History and Racial Literacy Education, University at Buffalo, USA."
