Tedious Journeys: Autoethnography by Women of Color in Academe lends voice to the experiences of women of color in predominantly White institutions. Its purpose is to create dialogue and develop support networks for faculty members who may have similar experiences, and to increase institutions' awareness of how faculty of color experience life within the academy, which can then lead to increasing their attraction and retention. This book will be useful in education classes that deal with diversity and administration in higher education.
