Mini Grants

Zoom Public Speaker

The Gender Equity Center requested funds to secure American autistic disability rights activist, Lydia Brown, as a public speaker for a Zoom conference held in honor of Disability Awareness Month (October).

Lydia Brown — who identifies as transgender and gender nonconforming — aims to shed some light upon how their two identities of autism and gender intersect with one another, and often do in the LGBTQ+ community. They will also further establish the history of the disability and LGBTQ+ rights movement to further inform and spread awareness.

The Gender Equity Center, with the aid of the Multicultural Center and Student Accessibility Services, hope that students may attend the Zoom conference, so that they can further understand and learn for their own edification.
Requested: $3,000
Granted: $3,000

Nominee Approvals

Appointment Review Committees

Appointment Review Committees are assembled by teachers who want a tenured position. Students appointed to these committees become part of the review process the tenure-tracked teachers must go through before attaining tenured status. The ASG Board is tasked with appointing student volunteers to said positions, but postponed discussion of the matter to their next meeting.
