Reframing Campus Conflict Edition 2

“This book serves to equip educators to practically apply transformative justice in higher education. The authors challenge readers to critically self-reflect and critique both individual and institutional prejudice. As student conduct professionals we are accountable to the preservation of the landmark legacy of Dixon v. Alabama. We have a duty to speak authentically, promote equity, and lead with unshakable integrity. This book highlights a meaningful spectrum of pathways for healing hurt, repairing harm, and lasting community connectedness.”

Kateeka Harris - Association for Student Conduct Administration (ASCA) President-elect 2020

“This book reminds us that the goals of inclusive excellence are relevant now more than ever as we seek to innovate and reinforce the principles of dignity, honesty, civic virtue, democratic engagement, and scholarly discourse. Teaching and modeling peaceful and just resolution of conflict are foundational to graduating global and inclusive graduates across learning platforms and programs.

By providing deep theoretical foundations, a broad framework and implementation model for higher education with transferable K–12 and human resource management applications, and a thorough review of specific pathways for conflict resolution, educational leaders will find this to be an invaluable resource for years to come.”
