Diversity In Academe: Location, Location, Location, Fall 2018

This special issue focuses on diversity through the lens of geography. We examine how a college’s location affects its mission, its ability to recruit students and faculty members, and its campus culture. You’ll learn about the challenges and surprises that come with being black, or gay, or both, in mostly white communities in the heartland. And you’ll hear what’s unique about working and studying in locales including the outskirts of Detroit, on the Spirit Lake Dakota Sioux reservation in North Dakota, and in the vast interior of Alaska.
