This fully revised and updated second edition builds upon the original vision of the first, which was to give voice to diverse and inclusive perspectives, identities, and practices and to enact the principle that student conduct practice must be based upon tenets of social justice and restorative justice to disrupt and transform, through a lens of inclusive excellence, overly legalistic and escalated management applications in student conduct administration. In the intervening decade, this co-edited work has become more relevant than ever as colleges and universities continue to be the targets of litigation, activists, and lawmakers who have, for instance, rolled back earlier guidance under Title IX regarding violence against women. Civility, hate crimes, activism, immigration, globalism versus nationalism, and free speech are all again on the forefront of campus challenges impacting conflict and conduct management. New chapters cover these and other issues, and the book is further enhanced by case studies, as well as summaries and questions for dialogue, to encourage further reflection by the reader and bolster the usefulness of the work as a textbook and campus training guide. This second edition envisions an audience that encompasses more than student conduct practitioners. This expanded student affairs audience includes residence life staff; a range of administrative positions from legal counsel to the university president; and outside local, national, and federal stakeholders, all of whom are invested in these alternative approaches to conflict management.
