'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.

About Rest with Alex and Z
Welcome to 'Round About Campus, the podcast for the About Campus magazine, the scholarly magazine of ACPA-College Student Educators International.
In our third season of 'Round About Campus, we take a go at having a book club. The book we have chosen to focus on for the season is Ashley Neese's Permission to Rest: Revolutionary Practices for Healing, Empowerment, and Collective Care. In this episode, co-hostesses Alex C. Lange and Z Nicolazzo talk about their own reflections on the book, set up the idea of a book club through the podcast, and discuss their own dis/connections with the notion of rest.
In this episode, a number of people, publications, and bits of pop culture are discussed, including:
- The work of Amanda Tachine;
- Love My Naps, But Stay Woke: The Case Against Self-Care by Dian D. Squire and Z Nicolazzo;
- The late Peter M. Magolda;
- The late Deanna S. Forney;
- The Weather by Christina Sharpe;
- Mutual Aid: Building Solidarity During This Crisis (And the Next) by Dean Spade;
- The Sound and the Fury by William Faulkner;
- No Study Without Struggle: Confronting Settler Colonialism in Higher Education by Leigh Patel; and
- The TV show The Good Place.
