Overview

Rethinking LGBTQIA Students and Collegiate Contexts situates and problematizes identity interaction, campus life, student experiences, and the effectiveness of services, programs, and policies affecting LGBTQIA college students at both two- and four-year institutions. This volume draws from intersectional and critical perspectives to explore the complex ways in which LGBTQIA identities are shaped, discussed, and researched in higher education spaces. Chapters provide student affairs and higher education scholars with theory and practice perspectives on sociopolitical and historical contexts, student learning and development, support services, and explore how higher education reflects society’s pervasive stereotypes and lack of awareness of LGBTQIA students’ identity development and needs.

Reviews

The book you hold provides some insight and direction into how postsecondary educators, scholars, and students might understand this moment in the history of LGBTQIA students in higher education. This book both helps explain this paradoxical moment in LGBTQIA student experiences in higher education and helps move the research and practice further into a new moment. - From the Foreword by Kristen A. Renn, Michigan State University, USA. I encourage you to... re-engage what you think you know about LGBTQIA students and the topics of sexuality and gender in general. The chapters in this book offer great opportunities to do so. - From the Afterword by Dafina-Lazarus Stewart, Colorado State University, USA.
