“…Svara and Brunet (2005) disagreed and responded by forwarding the basis of an operational definition of social equity consisting of procedural fairness, distribution and access, quality, outcomes, and related responsibilities of guaranteeing all a place and the table being both proactive and affirmative to involve citizens, all of which are skills in which administrators must be educated. Indeed, from this time up until 2018, JPAE in particular saw a steadily growing number of social equity pieces on a wide range of topics, including teaching social equity in human resources management (Gooden & Wooldridge, 2007), as a standalone course (McCandless & Larson, 2018), in terms of human rights (Alvez & Timney, 2008), teaching about racism in the classroom (Lopez-Littleton et al, 2018), in terms of service learning (Waldner et al, 2011), in terms of transgender competence (Johnson, 2011), a social equity, diversity, and identity symposium (see Rivera & Ward, 2018), and many others too numerous to list in full. The next section continues this dialogue and captures the discipline's renewed efforts since this timeframe when the last Minnowbrook conference was convened to highlight its progress during the past five years.…”
