Abstract	Far too often researchers see social identities as discrete categories as opposed to understanding how they intersect to form students' unique collegiate experiences. With this in mind, the authors sought to understand how individuals with multiple minoritized identities explore who they are during their time in college. In particular, using data from a study of 20 Queer Students of Color at historically white institutions (HWIs) from across the country, they questioned how individuals explored their intersecting identities while navigating their institutions. Using intersectionality as a guiding framework in conjunction with scholarship on multiple identities, the authors were particularly interested in how these Queer People of Color connected to various groups on campus in the hopes of further understanding their identities. This article explores the story of Ness (they/them), a fourth-year student enrolled at an HWI in the Southeast United States who identifies as pansexual, nonbinary, Asian American, and Vietnamese. This article explores Ness' narrative more fully as a way to help student affairs practitioners recognize the potential challenges that students with multiple minoritized identities may face while exploring matters of identity on college campuses.
