An affirming resource for leaders and practitioners forwarding diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts on campus. In Restorative Resistance in Higher Education, diversity researcher and educator Richard J. Reddick shares the wisdom gained from three decades of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) work in educational settings. Reddick centers DEI efforts as challenging yet essential components of college life, recognizing campus environments not just as mirrors reflecting societal values and biases but also as crucibles for social change. Creating a more equitable college campus, Reddick argues, is a complex task that should be met by all members of the university community. He discusses many measures that promote wider involvement, including campus cultural orientations, professional development for faculty and staff, and frameworks to help institutional leaders respond to inequity and exclusion on campus. Delivering a trove of best practices for equity advancement, Reddick offers DEI professionals, and all members of the higher education community, the tools to engage in the work on professional, academic, and personal levels. He advocates developmental relationships such as mentoring, role modeling, and coaching as a means for historically marginalized students to access hidden educational pathways. He also encourages frank discussion of the social and emotional tax on persons who participate in or lead work on these highly charged issues. Throughout this crucial work, Reddick emphasizes the importance of restorative and sustaining approaches: those that promote practitioner well-being and challenge unjust structures.

Higher education institutions have emphasized retention as one of the measurable outcomes linked with institutional performance, state and federal funding appropriations, and publicized rankings (Hagedorn, 2012). Therefore, higher education institutions intentionally have become more focused on providing a robust first-year college experience, including high-impact practices intended to help with adjustment, transition, and retention of students during their first year. One high-impact practice is a formal mentoring program focused on relationship building, positive peer support, and social guidance (Kuh, Cruce, Shoup, Kinzie, & Gonyea, 2008; Kuh, Kinzie, Buckley, Bridges & Hayek, 2006). More specifically, peer mentoring is an important component of a student’s first year and undergraduate experience (Crisp & Cruz, 2009; Crisp et al., 2017; Gershenfeld, 2014; Jacobi, 1991; Miller, 2004). Mentorability is a term that conceptualizes mentees’ ability to engage in a mutually beneficial and developmental relationship (Reddick, 2014). It focuses on mentees understanding of their role and responsibilities engaging in the relationship. This study employed a phenomenological approach in examining how 17 mentees described their lived experiences of and how they perceived their ability to commit, contribute, and engage in a peer mentoring partnership in a formal mentoring program at an Hispanic Serving Institution. The key findings of the study demonstrated: (1) mentorability as a process: from unclear expectations to viewing a mentor as a lifeline for success; (2) mentees as information seekers and mentors as influential contributors; and (3) communication and open-mindedness as key mentee contributions, trust as a gatekeeper for relationship formation, and mentorability as multi-level of exchange including understanding a mentee’s role extends beyond the reciprocity with the mentor to other peers. Drawing from three social science theories, this study introduces a mentorability conceptual model for practice derived from findings from the study (Astin, 1993; Lin, 2001; Cropanzano et al., 2017). Additional findings, and implications for future research, practice, and theory are discussed

Management communication encompasses a wide range of practices that define modern organizations. Those practices are, in many respects, constituted, formed and contextualized by the use of language. This handbook traces the theoretical modelling of these practices by contemporary research. It explores their linguistic features and performance in specific situations of value creation and in various modes. It is a companion for students and scholars of applied linguistics and organizational communication as well as management and strategy research.

The thirteen essays in Educating for Professionalism examine the often conflicting ethical, social, emotional, and intellectual messages that medical institutions send to students about what it means to be a doctor. Because this disconnection between what medical educators profess and what students experience is partly to blame for the current crisis in medical professionalism, the authors offer timely, reflective analyses of the work and opportunities facing medical education if doctors are to win public trust. In their drive to improve medical professionalism within the world of academic medicine, editors Delese Wear and Janet Bickel have assembled thought-provoking essays that elucidate the many facets of teaching, valuing, and maintaining medical professionalism in the middle of the myriad challenges facing medicine at the dawn of the twenty-first century. The collection traces how the values of altruism and service can influence not only mission statements and admission policies but also the content of medical school ethics courses, student-led task forces, and mentoring programs, along with larger environmental issues in medical schools and the communities they serve.
