Crafting Homeplace in the Academic Borderlands
Teachers' College Press (Verlag)
978-0-8077-8619-2 (ISBN)
Increasingly, faculty with intersectional perspectives are challenging many aspects of higher education and urging a radical reimagination of the institution itself. This volume explores the successful strategies and contradictions of working within, against, and beyond a university with the goal of creating a humanizing educational experience for students and faculty alike. Providing a glimpse of what is possible, chapter authors describe their efforts to build alternative core curricula, research apprenticeships, community partnerships, ways of interacting with one another, and models of leadership. They reimagine academic milestones and processes like hiring, tenure and promotion, faculty support, research, funding, publishing, collaboration, and more. Each essay details the institutional structures and supports that were effective at improving academic work in teaching and research contexts. Crafting Homeplace in the Academic Borderlands is a much-needed examination of what it means to create a homeplace in academia where humanization is practiced as the foundation for a new way to teach, learn, know, and be in relationships.
