Exploring LGBTQ+ College Students Meaning-Making of Current Activism and Sociohistorical Movements

• In Event: Student community service and activism on the college campus

Abstract

Using data from a longitudinal qualitative study of LGBTQ+ student success, authors sought to examine how students make meaning of social change across time and understand what connections, if any, students made between these issues. This study seeks to complicate theories of moral, ethical, and cognitive development and reasoning.
