| Abstract: |
On the bathroom walls of our campus hang small posters advertising campus events; there's an arts and crafts series, an event for making sugar scrub, soap, and lip balm, an Oreo stacking contest, a trip to play paintball at a local arena, and a s'more making party. What we longed for we couldn't find-a place standing at the intersection of academic affairs and student life, a site for deepening and extending challenging and intriguing classroom conversations on hot topics while offering something fun and enjoyable. So, we built it. We tried to remind ourselves, "If you build it, they will come." And, come they do. Every month, we host what we affectionately call a gender party. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
