Feminist Mentoring in Academia

Edited by Jessica A. Pauly; Stevie M. Munz and Leandra Hinojosa Hernández - Contributions by Jordan Allen; Jennifer Bender; Patrice M. Buzzanell; Cecilia Cerja; Danielle J. Corple; Sherella Cupid; Katherine J. Denker; Sean M. Eddington; Katherine Fama; Brandi Felderhoff; Jennifer Hall; Leandra Hinojosa Hernández; Scarlett L. Hester; Brooke Hildebrand Clubbs; Jasmine R. Linabary; Ziyu Long; Tui Matelau; Gabriela I. Morales; Ashton Mouton; Stevie M. Munz; Alicia Nijdam-Jones; Katharine O'Connor; Jessica A. Pauly; Diana Peck; Sharmila Pixy Ferris; Sheri Rysdam; Kelli Jean Smith; Heidi Smith Parker; Elizabeth Wilhoit Larson and Helen Yeung

Feminist Mentoring in Academia offers a varied collection of autoethnographic and research-based accounts of support, struggle, and resilience from the ivory tower. Contributors write about the moments in-between, where feminist mentoring initiates, renews, thrives, and sometimes struggles. The work presented in this book highlights how feminist mentoring happens between professor and student; junior faculty and tenured; and occurs repeatedly. Featuring contributions from scholars at varying points in their academic careers, the chapters of this book propose best feminist mentorship practices, disclose personal narratives, and critique traditional forms of mentoring with visions for feminist mentorship futures. Scholars of communication, feminist studies, higher education, and sociology will find this book of particular interest.

About the Contributors

“Feminist Mentoring in Academia captures the powerful potential of feminist mentoring practices, from co-mentoring to sister circles, to resist, disrupt, and transform the hierarchical and alienating norms of academia. This is a timely book that is at its best when it draws from the diverse experiences of the authors, experiences that collectively point to the necessity of developing mentoring practices for faculty that move beyond traditional, institutionalized, vertical mentoring.”
