This qualitative study seeks to make meaning of the lived experiences of Black women administrators serving in senior housing officer (SHO) roles at predominantly White institutions (PWIs.) This study will highlight the intersection of participants' racial and gender identities to understand how their identities contributed to their experiences as senior housing officers. As Black women are often faced with dual forms of oppression, racism and sexism, this study will use a narrative inquiry approach to capture voices that are often silenced in the academy. Black feminist thought will serve as a theoretical framework to allow narratives from Black women to illuminate the experiences of Black women serving in critical roles in housing and residence life programs at PWIs.
