Panel Discussion: Coming Out as a Scholar (posted 10 October 2005)
Anyone who is going to be in Burlington from 1:30-3pm on Wednesday the 12th of October is invited to come to a panel discussion moderated by yours truly.
As part of UVM's celebration of National Coming Out Week, "Coming Out as a Scholar" will bring together lesbian, gay, and straight academics researching diverse topics such as queerness in Native American populations, the history of gender and sexuality in the British Empire, LGBTQA issues in nursing, and the ways queerness is "played" or hidden in online communities, to discuss possibilities, pitfalls, and what it's like either being out on campus or studying "out topics."
The panel will include:
Paul Deslandes, Assistant Professor of History
Brian Gilley, Assistant Professor of Anthropology
Cheryl Laskowski, Assistant Professor of Nursing
and the discussion will be moderated by Richard Parent, Assistant Professor of English.
Coming Out as a Scholar
