DESCRIPTION:Join the Inclusive History Project as we celebrate the launch of the Women's and Gender Studies Oral History Archive\, a new resource documenting the history and impact of Women’s and Gender Studies\, Women in Learning and Leadership\, and LGBTQ Studies at the University of Michigan-Dearborn.

Attendees will also hear from the students and faculty who created the project and learn how to access and use the collection for research\, teaching\, and engagement.\n\nThe panel discussion will be followed by a reception with a DJ and light fare. All are welcome. \n\nThe Women's and Gender Studies Oral History Archive at the University of Michigan-Dearborn is an outcome of the IHP Research and Engagement grant led by Dr. Amy Brainer with the assistance of Fatima al-Bedany and Lyla Kerr. \n\nRegistration is encouraged.
