We’ve been having great discussions at our recent work group meetings. Here are three professional development activities that we are actively pursuing:
- a panel discussion in partnership with OSU’s Pride Center, focused on gender and sexual identity related issues from both student and teacher/educator perspectives. Please look here for updates. We’re hoping this event will take place early winter term. Our tentative date is January 21st.
- a shared reading of Eula Biss’s book Notes from No Man’s Land (http://eulabiss.net/). We’re working on securing multiple copies.
- bringing American Promise (http://www.americanpromise.org) to Corvallis and OSU, potentially as a partnership event with OSU’s Lonnie B. Harris Black Cultural Center. [In addition to the film’s website, there’s a thought provoking interview with the filmmakers at http://new.livestream.com/talkingtransition/NYC/videos/35057564.]
Stay tuned, and check out our Calendar tab for upcoming meeting information.
