This article focuses on the experiences of four Black faculty members at predominantly White research universities with microaggression in the workplace. Utilizing scholarly personal narratives (SPN), this article explores the inhibitive nature of microaggressions, the resilient nature of Black faculty enduring these social attacks, and possible avenues for addressing the issue at an institutional level. The narratives shed light on the invisible social ill that occurs daily in the American academy, and those same voices call for serious introspection and administrative action in the field of higher education.

This study explored master's-level counseling students' (N = 804) perceptions of training in the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (2009) Research and Program Evaluation standard, and their attitudes toward quantitative research. Training perceptions and quantitative research attitudes were low to moderate, with no statistical differences across program accreditation or specialty area. Implications and possibilities for future research are discussed.
