Begin To Play: The Case For Play In Community Engagement In Higher Education, Naomi B. Roswell
Begin To Play: The Case For Play In Community Engagement In Higher Education, Naomi B. Roswell
Pedagogy and Theatre of the Oppressed Journal
Although little is written about the role of play in community engagement in higher education, professors and administrators intuitively grasp its value in building trust and democratizing spaces, but use games thinly. This paper acknowledges the challenges of developing effective community engagement partnerships and demonstrates how and why games based in Theater of the Oppressed deepen and enhance initiatives to dissolve town / gown divisions and enable collaborative knowledge generation. Through an analysis of literature reviews and interviews, this paper makes a case for deliberately incorporating games from Theater of the Oppressed (TO) - to advance community engagement initiatives by …

Journal of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning for Christians in Higher Education
“Higher education institutions throughout the United States and other countries are experiencing signifi cant increases in the number of international students enrolled at their campuses” (Washburn & Hargis, 2017, p. 2). However, the rate of growth for this cohort of culturally, linguistically, economically, and ethnically diverse (CLEED) students exceeds the rate of faculty preparation and capacity to effectively serve their needs. Statistical evidence corroborates the view of Enright (2011) and others that today’s diverse student body is now “the ‘new mainstream’ of the 21st century classroom” (p. 80). Research in the last two decades points to a real need for …

They’Re Crying In The All-Gender Bathroom: Navigating Belonging In Higher Education While First Generation And Nonbinary, Jo D. Wilson
The Vermont Connection
Maintaining the sociocultural and interpersonal supports needed
to succeed in higher education as a first-generation student can
be very difficult due to a lack of familiarity with what brings
success. When this identity intersects with a nonbinary gender
identity, it further complicates higher education’s challenges and
may make solutions impossible to come by. My experience sits at
the intersection of these two identities and their gradual collision
and connection with success in higher education. Through this
narrative, I seek to unpack potential difficulties and nuances
for the increasingly diverse body of first generation students and
bring attention to the barriers …
Behind The Curtain: The Cultural Capital Of Pilipino Cultural Nights, Xavier J. Hernandez
Behind The Curtain: The Cultural Capital Of Pilipino Cultural Nights, Xavier J. Hernandez
Journal of Southeast Asian American Education and Advancement
This study examines the phenomenon of Pilipino Cultural Nights in higher education through the lens of community cultural wealth. While in name, Pilipino Cultural Nights pay homage to the native culture of the Philippines, the processes through which these performances are produced and reproduced as annual traditions exhibit a distinct Filipino American cultural experience that is facilitated by the higher education environment. As under-represented and under-served students, Filipino American students utilize their various forms of community cultural wealth to create one of the most visible performances on their campus and a cornerstone coming of age experience for Filipino American youth. …

A Different Set Of Rules? Nlrb Proposed Rule Making And Student Worker Unionization Rights, William A. Herbert, Joseph Van Der Naald
Journal of Collective Bargaining in the Academy
This article presents data, precedent, and empirical evidence relevant to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) proposal to issue a new rule to exclude graduate assistants and other student employees from coverage under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). The analysis in three parts. First, the authors show through an analysis of information from other federal agencies that the adoption of the proposed NLRB rule would exclude over 81,000 graduate assistants on private campuses from the right to unionize and engage in collective bargaining. Second, the article presents a legal history from the past half-century about unionization of student employees …
