Inhaltsangabe

Effectively address the challenges of equity and inclusion on campus

The long-awaited second edition, Multicultural Competence in Student Affairs: Advancing Social Justice and Inclusion, introduces an updated model of student affairs competence that reflects the professional competencies identified by ACPA and NASPA (2015) and offers a valuable approach to dealing effectively with increasingly complex multicultural issues on campus.  To reflect the significance of social justice, the updated model of multicultural awareness, knowledge, and skills now includes multicultural action and advocacy and speaks directly to the need for enhanced perspectives, tools, and strategies to create inclusive and equitable campuses.

This book offers a fresh approach and new strategies for student affairs professionals to enhance their practice; useful guidelines and revised core competencies provide a framework for everyday challenges, best practices that advance the ability of student affairs professionals to create multicultural change on their campuses, and case studies that allow readers to consider and apply essential awareness, knowledge, skills, and action applied to common student affairs situations.

Multicultural Competence in Student Affairs: Advancing Social Justice and Inclusion will allow professionals to:

• Examine the updated and revised dynamic model of student affairs competence
• Learn how multicultural competence translates into effective and efficacious practice
• Understand the inextricable connections between multicultural competence and social justice
• Examine the latest research and practical implications
• Explore the impacts of practices on assessment, advising, ethics, teaching, administration, technology, and more
• Learn tools and strategies for creating multicultural change, equity, and inclusion on campus

Understanding the changes taking place on campus today and developing the competencies to make individual and systems change is essential to the role of student affairs professional.  What is needed are new ways of thinking and innovative strategies and approaches to how student affairs professionals interact with students, train campus faculty and staff, and structure their campuses.  Multicultural Competence in Student Affairs: Advancing Social Justice and Inclusion provides guidance for the evolving realities of higher education.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Multicultural Competence in Student Affairs: Advancing Social Justice and Inclusion is the long-awaited revision and expansion of the 2004 groundbreaking book, Multicultural Competence in Student Affairs. Although the literature and practice on social justice and inclusion in higher education has matured since the initial book was published, these issues have grown in complexity, and campus administrators still struggle to create multicultural and socially just campuses that welcome, include, and engage all students. More often than not, practitioners, administrators, and faculty still receive limited or ineffective training that helps them to actually develop the awareness, knowledge, and skills to work effectively with all students. Moreover, they receive even less training that would help them address the organizational, structural, power, and privilege issues that prevent the creation of multicultural and socially just campuses. Fortunately, Multicultural Competence in Student Affairs: Advancing Social Justice and Inclusion examines all of these issues, guiding readers who want to develop their multicultural and social justice competencies and enact change at the individual, group, and institutional levels.

Like its classic predecessor, this book presents a comprehensive portrait of both the competencies necessary for effective student affairs practice and how each of those competencies must be infused with multicultural awareness, knowledge, skills, and actions. Multicultural Competence in Student Affairs: Advancing Social Justice and Inclusion offers an updated version of the Dynamic Model of Student Affairs Competence―the principal conceptual element of the book―which is now more closely aligned with the ACPA NASPA Professional Competency Areas for Student Affairs Educators. This book also highlights the action steps―built on requisite awareness, knowledge, and skills within each competency―that are needed to create the multicultural campuses we seek.

Written by Raechele Pope, Amy Reynolds, and John Mueller―all recognized by their peers as authorities on multicultural competence, social justice, and creating multicultural campus environments―this important book is based on the authors’ years of practice, teaching, research, and consulting Comprehensive in scope, Multicultural Competence in Student Affairs: Advancing Social Justice and Inclusion contains the most current theory, useful models, and research-based findings. Additionally, this book offers practical strategies, best practice exemplars, and case studies to help the reader more clearly recognize both the challenges and potential solutions.
