Student success is important to me. I recognize that there are *multiple* ways to learn and that this multiplicity should be acknowledged in the structure of university courses and the evaluation of their participants. Thus, I facilitate students registered in my courses to share their learning styles and comprehension requirements with me and I encourage more detailed discussions as needed during my office hours or at another arranged time, if necessary. Every student is entitled to a meaningful and stimulating learning experience.
Students whose access needs aren’t being met (due to a disability or any other kind of challenge) are strongly encouraged to avail themselves of the services provided by the Office of Disability Services — http://www.d.umn.edu/disability-resources — (218) 726-6130. This office can help you whether you have long-term difficulties (like learning disabilities, cognitive obstacles, sensory deficits, or other chronic illnesses) as well as short-term ones (like injuries that interfere with your ability to take notes or attend class). Even if you don’t avail yourself of disability services, I strongly encourage you to contact me at jschroer@d.umn.edu if you have accessibility needs regarding my courses that aren’t being met.
Any student who has difficulty affording groceries or accessing sufficient food to eat every day, or who lacks a safe and stable place to live, and believes this may affect their performance in the course, is urged to contact the Office of Student Life — vcsl@d.umn.edu — for support. Furthermore, please notify the me if you are comfortable in doing so. This will enable me to provide any resources that I may possess.

I am currently working on two major projects (as well as a number of smaller projects). I am working on a sonograph currently titled A Black Feminist Ethic. I am also working in collaboration with a filmmaker (and former student Daniel Norgard) on a book called Cut to Black: Understanding Race, Culture, & Belonging. Details of these two projects can be found below.
