LGBT* Difficult Dialogues

Would you like to have a better understanding about how to meet the needs of LGBT students on campus? Do you want to feel more comfortable discussing difficult topics regarding sexuality and gender identity? Have you had these topics come up in your classrooms and wondered how to model respectful discussion and turn it into a learning opportunity for yourself and your students? Cindy Anderton, Ph.D., LPC, NCC Assistant Professor and Jen Stubbs, Graduate Student, are offering an opportunity to engage in open dialogue and expand our knowledge about how to meet the needs of the LGBT students here at UW-Whitewater. They would like to invite you to the LGBT* Dialogues for Faculty & Instructional Staff initiative held for seven weeks during the spring semester on Thursdays from 1:00 – 2:30 p.m. We want to welcome all who are interested in participating in a casual and welcoming environment for mutual learning. The dates for this unique learning opportunity are February 2, 9, 16, 23 and March 1, 8, and 15.

The group size will be held to 12 people. If you are interested in participating and can attend most of the dates please register online using your net ID. This workshop is listed under the LEARN Center. The room location will be UC 264. This is brought to you on behalf of the Chancellor’s LGBT* Taskforce, PB Poorman PRIDE Resource Center, and the LEARN Center. This is the first in a series of dialogues that will take place.

I'm the library guy. No, seriously, I'm the only male reference & instruction librarian. I also have the pleasure of serving several campus committees, the Academic Staff Assembly and the Chancellor's Task Force on LGBT Issues, among others.
