Friday

Yesterday was a lovely day...did some PA research, worked a bit around the house, had an LBGT Panel with the Faculty Learning Inclusiveness (or something like that). This was the first panel where we weren't the only ones...they brought in several "underrepresented" student groups. Several folks here with a program that helps migrant workers and their children get their GEDs and a Muslim Students Association representative were also there. It was nice to hear their stories, and I chimed in a bit with the MSA rep. Transgender Day of Remembrance is coming up; PRISM, RHA, and TransAction brought in the mother of a transwoman who was brutally murdered in California to speak. Sylvia is a strong Christian; it was interesting to hear her take on trans issues as a Christian and a mother. Let's just say I cried a lot.

Don't get too involved with Kant. Remember the old song "I Kant Get Started With You". Uncle Al
