Call for Chapters: Linguistic Discrimination in U.S. Higher Education & Linguistic Discrimination in International Higher Education
Event Details
Linguistic Discrimination in U.S. Higher Education, Second Edition
The editors of Linguistic Discrimination in U.S. Higher Education: Power, Prejudice, Impacts, and Remedies (Clements and Petray, 2021, Routledge/Taylor & Francis Group) invite submissions for the second edition of this text. Submissions due July 1, 2025
Submission may be in the form of a chapter draft (if you already have a full draft), an abstract, or a conference presentation at this stage.
We are interested in research at various levels of the university experience, including discrimination of languages, dialects, and accents, specifically through the lenses of race, ethnicity, socio-economic status, region (rural versus urban), gender, religion, sexual orientation, ability, and even age as all of these intersect in various locales with differing outcomes for speakers’ opportunities within various relationships on university campuses involving students, staff, instructors, and administrators. In addition, successes of implemented programmatic changes or department/college-wide initiatives to combat linguistic discrimination are also of interest.
If there is any difficulty with this form or if you have questions before submitting, please contact Dr. Gaillynn Clements at gail.clements@duke.edu and Marnie Jo Petray at marnie.petray@sru.edu.
