'It’s great to see queer theory informing research in Higher Education in ways that go beyond adding queers and stirring. Rather, this is a valuable stirring of the academy; a queering that travels beyond the global north to draw insights from research in Higher Education undertaken in East and South Asia, Europe, Latin America, and sub-Saharan Africa.'
Professor Mary Lou Rasmussen, School of Sociology, The Australian National University
