Abstract	Life stories, while a powerful method in social sciences and humanities scholarship, are still not widely accepted and used in the higher education classroom. This commentary encourages college and university professors, particularly those of minority backgrounds, to feel at ease in using storytelling as a classroom pedagogical tool. Stories can illustrate the complexity of current pressing issues such as immigration, identity development, and injustice, among many others. They open up possibilities for student engagement in interpretative and relational learning, and opportunities to examine the narratives that are widely told. (As Provided).
