Letter from the Editor
While this was not a special theme issue, a theme emerged
nonetheless-all the articles focus on outcomes and supports
for diverse populations of students.
article describes the creation of Jamii House, a residential learning community charged
with improving the graduation rates of Black males at a research-intensive university in
the northeastern U.S. Findings from this study demonstrate effective components of
an LLC for Black males that can improve persistence, retention, and graduation rates
and provide support and programming for a transformative collegiate experience for
Black males. Finally, Angela L. Curl, Barbra Brottman, and Miranda C. Kunkel's mixed
methods case study wraps up this issue, by examining the benefits and challenges of
having an emotional support animal (ESA) while living in campus housing, from the
perspective of the animals' owners and their roommates. The findings of this study can
help students who are debating whether to obtain an ESA and whether to bring their ESA
with them to college, and it provides an informative table that summarizes barriers and
logistical considerations for students considering having an ESA in their residence hall.
As in every issue, we owe many thanks to the volunteers and devoted staff who contribute
to the process of publishing The Journal of College and University Student Housing.
Our associate editors carefully guide and mold the process, overseeing teams of talented
and dedicated reviewers. Camille Perlman in the ACUHO-I Central Office provides guidance
and support for our Board and volunteers and is an invaluable resource for all of
us. Our copy editor for this issue (and many past issues), Christine Freeman, carefully,
quickly, and professionally handles this important step towards publication. Ellen Gray
shared her talents as the graphic designer for this issue. Finally, the reviewers provided
thoughtful and insightful discussion questions for each article in this issue. I am confident
there is something useful here for everyone who reads it. Enjoy the articles, utilize
the discussion questions, and be thoughtful about how you can use and apply the information
you learn from these pages.
