I am highly impressed with the diversity of perspectives and issues on AAPIs addressed by this volume. It is an outstanding effort to overcome the disregard and invisibility of AAPIs in higher education and provides a more authentic and nuanced view that strongly challenges many pervasive stereotypes about this widely misunderstood but increasingly significant group.Dr. Bob H. Suzuki, President Emeritus, California State Polytechnic University, PomonaThis book assembles an extensive array of extraordinarily authentic accounts of Asian American and Pacific Islander experiences. Each chapter uniquely synthesizes theory, research, and practice to inform efforts to effectuate positive campus environments for AAPIs. A must-read for policymakers, educators, and students who seek new insights and approaches to help AAPI college students succeed.Doris Ching, Emeritus Vice President for Student Affairs, University of Hawaii SystemCovering topics from identity to activism and admissions to the glass ceiling, this ground-breaking volume fills a gaping hole in higher educational research on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. Using critical theories, national data sets, and case studies, scholars provide campuses with new findings and approaches to address the unequal treatment of AAPI students and faculty.Shirley Hune, Professor of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies, University of Washington
