New from renowned author team Renn, Haynes, Lange, Salinas, and Perez, College Student Development Theory in Action is a timely and accessible go-to source for teaching and learning college student development theory. Designed for Student Affairs and Higher Education graduate courses, this textbook takes an empirically-based, theory-in-practice approach. College Student Development Theory in Action presents foundational concepts of how student development occurs – the processes underlying development – and then brings readers through a series of cases to introduce theories of social identity and cognitive, intercultural, and holistic development. Taking a critical approach and integrating sociopolitical contexts with reflective practice, this book emphasizes the value of using key concepts to adapt to constantly changing contexts within higher education and student affairs practice. Based on an investigation of what graduate students, instructors, and student affairs professionals want and need from courses and books about student development theory, this new textbook is rich with suggested activities and online resources that help instructors customize their courses and facilitate the teaching and learning of student development theories. A collection of online resources is available at www.routledgelearning.com/sdtia, including guiding frameworks, learning activities, teaching methods, real-world examples, and further resources bridging theory and practice to bring the book's concepts to life.

Historically and contemporarily, student activists have worked to address oppression on college and university campuses. This book explores the experiences of students engaged in identity-based activism today as it relates to racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, and other forms of oppression. Grounded by a national study on student activism and the authors’ combined 40 years of experience working in higher education, Identity-Based Student Activism uses a critical, power-conscious lens to unpack the history of identity-based activism, relationships between activists and administrators, and student activism as labor. This book provides an opportunity for administrators, educators, faculty, and student activists to reflect on their current ideas and behaviors around activism and consider new ways for improving their relationships with each other, and ultimately, their campus climates.
