330 Frist Campus Center Wednesday, March 4, 2020, 12 – 1:20pm Trans and gender non-conforming students are increasingly comfortable being out in the classroom but often are frustrated or let down by their instructors’ apathy, lack of knowledge or discomfort about their identities and experiences. Instructors who can address the needs of trans and gender non-conforming students in the classroom can make a huge difference in these students’ classroom success and their passion for the topic being taught. In this workshop facilitated by Princeton LGBT Center staff, attendees will learn vocabulary relevant to trans and gender non-conforming students, information on the campus climate for trans students, best practices for pronouns in the classroom, and a robust Q&A. We welcome AIs with any and all levels of experience working with trans and gender non-conforming students to attend. Lunch is provided.
