Diversity Dialogues

The last two Diversity Dialogues of the semester will be held this week:

Monday, December 7: “Feminism: the F-word”: 12 p.m. to 1:15 p.m., Student Center 309. Facilitated by Candice Bosse, assistant professor of Modern Languages Feminism-the word and, by extension, the movement-has suffered from an image problem. Women of all ages, colors, and socio-economic classes have both embraced it and disdained it. Why is this? What does it mean to be a feminist in the U.S.? What can we do to re-invigorate this F-word and charge it with new meaning?

Wednesday, December 9: “Microaggressions”: 12 p.m. to 1:15 p.m., Student Center Atrium Conference Room (located next to the ATM machine). Facilitated by Dottie R. Morris, Chief Officer for Diversity and Multiculturalism. This dialogue will focus on microaggressions and their impact on individuals within a community.
