Hello! My name is Christine Hollar. People call me Chris, they also call me Hollar – it is your preference in which you choose! I grew up on in a small farm town called Milladore in central Wisconsin on a dairy farm. I have been at UWW for 4 years and am currently a hall director in the Arey/Benson Complex. My undergrad is from UW-La Crosse in therapeutic recreation (working with individuals with disabilities to engage back in life). I returned to college and received a Master’s in Counseling Education – Higher Education Track from UWW.
I represent the Academic Staff Assembly, sharing information from the LGBT Task Force with ASA. I enjoy being on this committee because it is helping to level the playing field for all underrepresented groups. I see my brother and his partner struggle with our family dynamics and I can see the exceptional need for support of individuals coming out.
The task force is comprised of members from all over campus. The blog allows us to not only let the campus community know what we do, but also gives us an opportunity to introduce the individuals that make up this fantastic committee.
