“…Although the literature on international students who became counseling psychology faculty is limited in the number of publications and scope of analysis, there is significant literature on the paths to, and the experiences in academia of individuals from groups who are underrepresented among tenured faculty, including women (e.g., Basow, 2018; Niemann et al, 2020), first-generation individuals, and some U.S. ethnic minorities (e.g., Espino et al, 2010; Gay, 2004; Johnson-Bailey & Cervero, 2008; McCormick & Wilcox, 2020; Turner et al, 2011). This literature highlights the shared and unique challenges these individuals experience, based on the specific dimensions (e.g., sex, ethnicity, culture, social class) of their underrepresentation in academia, and the social meanings and implications of those dimensions in terms of being a professor.…”
