Reviews

‘Longing for Justice is a relevant read that I highly recommend because it can serve as an impetus for student affairs professionals to critically reflect on their agency as administrators and educators and on the consequences of their daily educational practices with students.’ - Gerson Sanchez (Journal of Student Affairs Research and Practice June 2016)
