This dialogue intends to provide a space for the celebration and recognition of various forms of gender identity and gender expression. The dialogues will include exercises, various opportunities for personal expression, and interactive discussions in order to explore the construct of gender. The maximum number of participants is limited to twelve. Participants must pre-register for the dialogues and are expected to attend all sessions. The dialogues will be closed to only the participants who attend the first dialogue. Participation is open to students, staff, faculty, and community members.
