Exploring Black Queer Doctoral Student Experiences With Utilizing Campus Services, Mitchell Everett
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This study utilized narrative inquiry to examine the experiences of Black Queer Doctoral Students (BQDS) with campus services and their ability to ameliorate minority stress and establish community with other students minoritized by their sexual or gender identity.
