      abstract = {"The sweeping forces of globalization present new  challenges for higher education, but also represent a clear  mandate for change.  Because of the unfinished business of  remedying the underrepresentation of minorities and women  in higher education, this book is designed to assist campus  leaders and educators in the difficult process of cultural  transformation in support of diversity and inclusion. This  book explores the model of reciprocal empowerment as a  moral framework linking the institution's values, culture,  and workplace practices to the outside world through the  prism of diversity.  It is a practical guide that provides  concrete approaches to the creation of a genuinely  inclusive campus. Its focus is on research-based strategies  that will enable institutions of higher education to assess  current practices, create successful action plans, and move  beyond structural representation to true reciprocal  empowerment. The measurement strategies, organizational  learning tools, and best practices included here will  assist institutions of higher education in building a  flexible repertoire of institutional approaches to  reciprocal empowerment and inclusion. Only by systematic  change will universities bridge the diversity divide and  create a campus culture that values and celebrates the  contributions of all its members. This book is for  educators seeking to translate diversity principles into  practice." -- Cover.},
