Pre-Conference Workshops

Progressing Forward: Making Full Inclusive Campuses a Reality
Sunday, March 11  9:00 AM-12:00 PM
Patrick Lukingbeal, Rice Univeristy
Bobby Kuntsman, Colorado State University
Kevin Lipine, Babson College
TJ Jourian, Vanderbilt University

The 12th Annual GLBT KC Institute will explore the state of inclusion of LGBTQQIA communities in higher education.  Participants will explore areas of recent success and examine barriers.  Through presentations and group facilitation, topics such as policy, housing, human resources and language inclusion will be discussed.  Participants will analyze ways for seamless integration to occur in areas where LGBTQQIA people may be underrepresented, such as Greek Life or athletics.  The day will unfold to self-examination and assessment of where growth still needs to occur on home campuses, and participants ignited to influence the positive change.

Moving Forward: Transgender and Gender Non-Conforming Communities
Sunday, March 11  1:00 PM- 4:00 PM  
T.J. Jourian, Vanderbilt University
Patrick Lukingbeal, Rice University
Bobby Kuntsman, Colorado State University
Chris Mosier, Marymount Manhattan College
Doris Dirks, Northwestern University

The 12th Annual GLBTKC Institute marks an opportune time to reflect more specifically on the inclusion of transgender and non-conforming students, staff, and faculty in higher education.  With increased visibility and diversity, comes increased need for education, and more intentional integration of transgender and gender non-conforming people in all aspects of campus life.  Participants will receive a basic overview of terminology to aid in their engagement throughout the session and in their ability to be effective professionals.
