Guided by the scholarly personal narratives of LGBTQ+ higher
education scholars, practitioners, and scholar-practitioners, this
informative volume explores how individuals exist within and
experience the insider/outsider paradox within higher education as
they engage in disruption, queer methods, and action. The second of
a two-volume series, this book relates to the firsthand accounts
and personal stories of the contributors in order to illustrate the
challenges and opportunities that exist for queer and trans people.
Framed through the concept of queerness as doing, this book takes
up the important question of what it means to occupy both positions
of oppression and degrees of privilege within society and in the
context of work. It discusses how stories depict the nuances of the
insider/outsider paradox relative to practicing queerness as a
politic while identifying as part of the LGBTQ+ community in higher
education settings. The book then looks to the future, discussing
implications for research and practice, using the lessons learned
from the chapter authors. Comprised of firsthand contributions and
innovative scholarship, this book will be of interest to students
and scholars of queer and trans studies, student affairs, gender
and sexuality studies, and higher education, as well as those
seeking to understand the experiences of LGBTQ+ scholars and
practitioners as they navigate central tensions in their
scholarship and practice.
