Tapestry with Pulled Warp
A respected fiber artist teaches a technique that allows weavers to create shaped and three-dimensional tapestries, on any kind of loom. Designed for adventurous weavers of all skill levels who love a new challenge, this is the first book on the intriguing pulled warp technique. Used through the decades by a handful of weavers to create 3-D tapestries, and also to make flat tapestries that bend and curve, pulled warp helps weavers achieve exciting results. Susan Iverson, a professional weaver who has spent years researching and using this technique, is known for her skillful teaching style. * Clear, easy-to-follow instructions enable weavers to use pulled warp innovations in their own work. * Includes the technical and designing details that creative weavers want * Beautiful examples woven by Susan Iverson demonstrate what pulled warp has to offer. * Can be used in several ways: as an intensive workshop-like experience, an inspiration for weavers at any level, and a source of technical ideas to try * Directly relevant to weavers at any stage, since Iverson shares how the technique has had an impact on different phases of her weaving career.

Driving Change Through Diversity and Globalization
This book significantly advances discussion of the mission of higher education in today’s multicultural environment and global economy. It sets out the challenges and considerations that must be addressed by administrative leaders, by trustees, and others who shape the vision and direction of the institution – but most particularly by academic deans and faculty.The author makes the case that the inclusion of diversity and globalization in disciplinary work contributes to the research agendas of individual faculty and their departments, aligns with scholarly values, and promotes such student learning goals as tolerance of ambiguity and paradox, critical thinking and creativity. He offers a strategic vision of success, backed by theory and examples of effective application, for creating transformative change; and provides a roadmap to implementing inclusive pedagogical practices and curricula. With implementation dependent on leadership and participation at every level of an institution, everyone with a stake in its future should read this book.

Our Doctoral Journey
Data from the Education at a Glance in 2019 states that less than 2 percent of the United States’ and world’s population holds a doctorate degree. Germane to this fact, the National Center of Education statistics reported that, in the 2018-19 academic year, of the doctoral degrees awarded to women, only 10.9 percent were awarded to Black women compared to 63.6 percent awarded to White women in the U.S. Black women who are interested in pursuing a doctorate, already in doctoral programs, or in their field of doctoral work are in crucial need of resources, community, and support. For too long, Black women have faced many systemic barriers and various forms of racist exclusion and oppressio...
Rape Culture on Campus
Rape Culture on Campus explores how existing responses to sexual violence on college and university campuses fail to address religious and cultural dynamics that make rape appear normal, dynamics imbedded in social expectations around race, class, gender, sexuality, and disability. Rather than dealing with these complex dynamics, responses to sexual violence on college campuses focus on implementing changes in one-time workshops. As an alternative to quick solutions, this book argues that long-term classroom interventions are necessary in order to understand religious and cultural complexities and effectively respond to this crisis. Written for educators, administrators, activists, and students, Rape Culture on Campus provides an accessible cultural studies approach to rape culture that complements existing social science approaches, an intersectional and interdisciplinary analysis of rape culture, and offers practical, classroom-based interventions.

Critical Approaches to Women and Gender in Higher Education
This volume provides a critical examination of the status of women and gender in higher education today. Despite the increasing numbers of women in higher education, gendered structures continue to hinder women’s advancement in academia. This book goes beyond the numbers to examine the issues facing those members of academia with non-dominant gender identities. The authors analyze higher education structures from a range of perspectives and offer recommendations at individual and institutional levels to encourage activism and advance equality in academia.
