Summary:"Higher Education Administration for Social Justice and Equity empowers all administrators in higher education to engage in their work-to make decisions, hire, mentor, budget, create plans, and carry out other day-to-day operations-with a clear commitment to justice, sensitivity to power and privilege, and capacity to facilitate equitable outcomes.
