Letter from the Editors
experiment and rehearse the skills and dispositions needed for a liberatory future "
(ACUHO-I, 2023, p. 24). This special edition of The Journal of College and University
Student Housing operates from that premise and endeavors to describe the practices
and possibilities that open up when residential communities prefigure the just, equitable,
and humanizing world we all deserve. We invite you to take up this issue, grapple

a liberatory future you might realize within your program. 
