Remember, to do the work for Workshop 2 you must have attended one of three events! Two have already happened, and only one is still upcoming: Miranda Joseph speaks on The Cruel Entrepreneurial University as part of the LGBT lecture series Wed 1 April at 5 pm, Marie Mount Hall 1400 (right near our classroom!)
Why and how are university politics entwined with LGBT issues and concerns? We mentioned in the last class the conference going on this very week in which Wekker, our author of Politics of Passion you should have begun reading already, is keynoting. And while that conference is going on so are the protests by students at the University of Amsterdam.
Learn something about those students protest in the context of international struggles in UK paper the Guardian, here:
