Why would I write a book? Why would I do something that attempts to challenge & disrupt narratives on student success in higher education?
In my practice, research, & thinking I see the need for new ways of responding to student needs. Give this a look & tell us what you think.

This reminds us that participation in student leader roles is not equitably distributed and thus, any conversation about benefits of participating carries a concern about who has real, practical, and sustainable access to opportunities. #PeerLeaders #Access #RisforResearch (6/7)

In today's R is for Research, I want to share an excerpt from a book by @SonjaArdoin and @drbeckymartinez that clearly highlights an important issue facing access and participation in student leadership roles on campus:
"The idea is that if students get involved on campus, they are leaders and capable of being successful members of a larger community. The issue arises when students cannot get involved because of their commitments to their families and work obligations.
