Recognizing the need to create more inclusive and diverse campuses across the spectrum of higher education, 37 professors and higher education professionals from the College of Saint Benedict and Saint Johns University collaborated to create this book on how to work toward that goal. It is a good read for all college students, faculty, and administrators in higher education, and should spark conversation about what changes a given institution could make to become more inclusive.... [I]t is a worthwhile read for anyone who wants to create a more inclusive campus climate. Recommended.
