Difficulties during the tenure process, prejudice stemming from affirmative action and higher levels of scrutiny than their colleagues are just a few tribulations experienced by faculty members from minority groups that have gone unnoticed and often ignored. The contributors of Diversity and Triumphs of Navigating the Terrain of Academe share these narratives and tell of how faculty navigate through situations such as microaggressions, racism and sexism. By taking an anecdotal approach, this volume captures the experiences of those who teach at institutions dominated by white males in the United States and abroad. This book is written as a treatise to dismantle the powers of discriminatory incubuses that have haunted institutions of higher learning, one narrative at a time. Some of these institutions are still making history in hiring its first person of color within its departments. Collectively, the contributors' experiences serve as instrumentalities that work together to initiate dialogue among current and future members of the professoriate, making this title an invaluable text for researchers and higher education administrators alike. 410 0$aDiversity in higher education ;$vv. 23.$x1479-3644 606 $aMinorities in higher education 606 $aRacism in higher education 606 $aSexism in higher education 606 $aDiscrimination in higher education 606 $aEducation$xHigher$2bisacsh 606 $aHigher & further education, tertiary education$2bicssc 615 0$aMinorities in higher education. 615 0$aRacism in higher education. 615 0$aSexism in higher education. 615 0$aDiscrimination in higher education. 615 7$aEducation$xHigher. 615 7$aHigher & further education, tertiary education. 676 $a378.19829 702 $aHeaggans$b Raphael 702 $aT.
