Description
Résumé:Religion is an increasingly hot topic on college campuses, and Douglas and Rhonda Hustedt Jacobsen's new book, No Longer Invisible, provides a helpful orientation to these discussions. Drawing on interviews with hundreds of professors, administrators, chaplains, and students, the authors have produced a highly readable and thoughtfully organized guide to religion in higher education., Although religion has become more visible in higher education in recent decades, the Jacobsens argue that its form differs from previous eras: today, it is not a hegemonic Protestantism that suffuses campuses, but instead a “pluriform” religion that features a diverse array of denominations, and spills over into a “brackish” mix of religious and secular forms (7).
