Toward Acceptance is a systematic study of the complex issues
facing gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered persons on college
campuses. Organized into five distinct sections, Toward Acceptance
builds on the content included in Evans and Wall's previous book,
Beyond Tolerance: Gays, Lesbians, and Bisexuals on Campus (American
College Personnel Association, 1993). The editors begin with an
overview of the current research dealing with gay, lesbian and
bisexual student issues and then move into a discussion of the
organizations promoting awareness and counseling. The latter
portion of the book focuses on diversity among the gay and lesbian
community and concludes with an examination of how student affairs
professionals can continue to be proactive in the area of sexual
orientation awareness and support. Complete with a comprehensive
collection of resources, Toward Acceptance is an important tool in
the greater awareness of problems within the gay and lesbian
college community. Co-published with American College Personnel
Association.
Written especially for student affairs professionals,
administrators, and faculty and student leaders, this
ground-breaking book is a vital resource for those facing the
complex and challenging issues that confront gays, lesbians, and
bisexuals on campus. Eighteen scholars and practitioners examine
the controversies surrounding identity development, homophobia,
career planning, gay and lesbian student organizations and many
other concerns unique to this population. It combines theory and
practical applications for developing awareness and initiating
collegiate programs. It also includes a comprehensive list of
resources for learning more about the gay, lesbian and bisexual
experience on campus. Co-published with ACPA. Originally published
in 1991.
