Reviews

This book is not only an excellent text to be used in higher education graduate classrooms across the country, but it offers exceptional case studies for new and seasoned administrators. It is clear that marginalized voices are still not being heard in the halls of our academy. This text provides an excellent vehicle to discuss the complex and layered issues of racism, prejudice, and discrimination that continue to be a part of what must be changed in today's colleges and universities. (Katherine Conway-Turner, Provost and Vice President of Academic Affairs, State University of New York at Geneseo) This is a bold perspective on a topic that has been 'dammed up' far too long. The content and context of these writings provide an up-date on an agenda whose time has come. The case studies are a substantive aspect of this book that opens the world of diverse voices to even the least aware. Unleashing Suppressed Voices on College Campuses will strengthen the curriculum of schools of education and student affairs preparation programs. (Gregory Roberts, Executive Director and Senior Operating Officer, ACPA-College Student Educators International)
