The rates of bullying and dropouts due to lack of safety in colleges and universities and subsequent suicidality for LGBT+ young adults and college students are exponentially higher than for non-LGBT+ people. As a result, many American college students are suffering needlessly, and many faculty and administrators are unsure of what to do. This book solves that problem. Setting out best practices and professional guidance for creating LGBT+ inclusive learning in schools, this approachable and easy-to-follow book guides faculty, administrators, and other staff toward appropriate and proven ways to create safer learning environments, update campus policies, enhance curricula, and better support LGBT+ college students as they learn.
A short useful guide for academics from staff to faculty to administration. It asks good questions and covers ideas that impact all angles of DEI awareness.
This book came as part of a book club read in my company's book club. It's a very difficult book to read that could be written in a more engaging manner. Dropped the book after a quarter of it. It's probably a good book to have in your arsenal for reference.
