Choosing to Label: What's in a Name?

When: Monday, November 2, 2015
2:00 PM - 3:30 PM
Where: > Other on campus location, contact host
Description: Bi, lesbian, gay, straight, queer, questioning, choose-not-to-label, etc. How do you decide which label to use? What do labels do? What don't they do? Is it possible to avoid labels? What is the difference between ascribed labels and labels we choose? How can we manage our identities in order to get the maximum benefit with the minimum cost? Let's think creatively and proactively about identity. This is a participatory workshop led by speaker, teacher, writer, and activist Robyn Ochs.
