McGowan, was published in 2019 and focuses on ways to break down patriarchal stereotypes and support the development of male college students.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor&#8217;s chapter, titled \u201cBuilding a Campus Coalition,\u201d has five key concentrations: accounting for your own identities and learning, goals and framing, different models, logistics and the role of developmental readiness.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor said one of the main goals of the chapter was to find ways to work with male students on masculinity issues.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI feel the audience for this is a lot of student affairs staff, but also parts of institutions, colleges or universities who work with male students and want to tackle masculinity issues,\u201d he said. \u201cWhat our chapter focused on is how to form a working group, or a coalition, to work on these issues on your campus.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another focus in the chapter is finding a number of different ways to solve these issues that can fit all budgets across college campuses.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf it\u2019s a situation where there\u2019s only one person, or if there\u2019s little to no budget for that, some of the resources can be very low cost, or even free,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor\u2019s interest in this topic goes back to his days at Miami University, where he received his undergraduate degree in philosophy in 1990. The following year, he received his master&#8217;s degree in higher education administration from Ball State University. In 2015, Taylor received his Ph.D. in educational leadership from Miami University.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI knew I didn\u2019t want to focus on conduct with this degree,\u201d he said. \u201cOne thing I did have interest in was men in fraternities, and Miami has a pretty robust fraternity program. So I decided I wanted to look into masculinity in fraternities and see how that develops.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The book is available for purchase at many of the country\u2019s top bookstores, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/men-and-masculinities-tracy-davis\/1130045722\">Barnes and Noble<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07T166PW5\/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&amp;btkr=1\">Amazon<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chris Taylor, director of community standards and student conduct, examined ways to work with male students on masculinity issues in a new book chapter. <a href=\"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/2019\/09\/13\/chris-taylor-publishes-chapter-in-book-about-masculinity\/\" class=\"morelink\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":62,"featured_media":74033,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[711,725,715,18],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-74017","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-faculty-staff","category-home-news-sidebar","category-news","category-research"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74017","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/62"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=74017"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74017\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":74045,"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74017\/revisions\/74045"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/74033"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=74017"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=74017"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/webapp2.wright.edu\/web1\/newsroom\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=74017"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
