'Round About Campus
Want to think about transformational work in higher education? Each month, ‘Round About Campus hosts Alex and Z talk with people across the higher education and student affairs landscape about ways to envision new, innovative, and engaging ways to further college student learning and development. A compliment to the About Campus scholarly magazine, ‘Round About Campus serves up bite-sized episodes where we can be good company with listeners as we collective explore answers to the question: what’s next in student affairs praxis?
‘Round About Campus is co-hostessed by Dr. Alex Lange (Colorado State University) and About Campus Executive Editor Dr. Z Nicolazzo (University of Arizona). The podcast publishes episodes during the academic calendar year, taking breaks for summer and winter leaves. If you have ideas for people to feature or topics to cover, let us know by reaching us at AboutCampusMag@gmail.com.
'Round About Campus's cover art was designed by Mary Ellen Wade.
'Round About Campus
About Season 2 with Cynthia Villarreal
Welcome to 'Round About Campus, the podcast for the About Campus magazine, the scholarly magazine of ACPA-College Student Educators International.
In our second season of 'Round About Campus, we take a 'behind the scenes' look at how About Campus works by talking to various people involved in making the magic happen. In this episode, co-hostesses Alex C. Lange and Z Nicolazzo reflect on Season 2 of the podcast with Cynthia Villarreal, an Associate Editor for About Campus.
Dr. Villarreal is an assistant professor in the Department of Educational Leadership at Northern Arizona University, just right up the road from where I am in Tucson. She holds a PhD in Urban Education Policy from the Rossier School of Education at the University of Southern California, and identifies as a fronteriza from El Paso, Texas, studying the borderlands of higher education, Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSI), organizational culture, equity and decision making, and Chicana feminisms and higher education. As a critical qualitative researcher, she uses interdisciplinary theories and research to inform her approach to the study of HSI and how they serve their Latine students by interrogating the policies, structures, and culture within colleges and universities. She is a mother scholar living in Phoenix, Arizona with her two children and husband.
In this episode, a number of publications and community engaged/creative works are discussed, including:
- The work of Eve Tuck;
