After the surgery and after coming out, Professor Boylan's wife stayed with her and they remain happily married with their two children. She has appeared on CNN, Oprah, NPR, and CBS, among others. Professor Boylan, the Director of the Creative Writing Program at Colby College, is an inspirational and enthusiastic speaker on issues of gender-identity and transgender rights.<br />

Come join us in the Grind at 5:00pm for a discussion on the words we use. We will explore the connotations and history behind the words that we use and how they affect society. What do the words that we say really mean? Do you contribute to Verbal Pollution?</div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Tilton was packed last friday night with people attending Noche Latina. The performances by members of the Clark community and members of the Worcester community were received very well by our guests. There was music, dancing, singing, and as always lots of food to celebrate Latin culture. Overall this was a wonderful night that we hope to do again next year. </span> </div>

Professor Melissa Butler joined us for a riveting discussion about religion and spirituality. Many religious groups on campus were represented as well as those who don't identify with any particular religion. We discussed religion's purpose, it's place in society, and it's place in our lives. All while eating delicious pancakes! All in all it was a very successful event that we hope to carry on in the future. Make sure to stay updated on our future events! This one may make a reappearance!</div>

Real Women, formerly known as Ladies’ Night, is an annual event hosted by the Office of Intercultural Affairs that aims to bring attention to the role of women in society. This year’s event focuses on the way women are portrayed in the media, and the heightened standards of femininity that are impossible to achieve. We seek to challenge such concepts by highlighting the beauty and diversity of women through a nude portrait exhibit of Clark students. Our hope is for people to see past what society and the media deems as “imperfections” and look at how all those elements are what make up a real woman. We believe that part of what makes women beautiful and unique is the diversity and range and even the blemishes and scars women are often taught to hide.<br />
<br />
This event was not an attempt to define what makes a “real woman”, but rather to break through the societal constraints and broaden perspectives. <br />

Written and directed by Jennifer Siebel Newsom, the film exposes how mainstream media contribute to the under-representation of women in positions of power and influence in America. The film challenges the media’s limited and often disparaging portrayals of women and girls, that make it difficult for women to achieve leadership positions and for the average woman to feel powerful herself. <a href="http://www.missrepresentation.org/" target="_blank">(source)</a></span></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span class="textexposedshow"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"></span></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span class="textexposedshow"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"></span></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span class="textexposedshow"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"></span></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span class="textexposedshow"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"></span></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span class="textexposedshow"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"></span></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span class="textexposedshow"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"></span></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span class="textexposedshow"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"></span></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span class="textexposedshow"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"></span></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span class="textexposedshow"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>OIA Intercultural Programminghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10632629740857375533noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-589689424138946382.post-4636392654131397152012-03-28T15:24:00.000-04:002012-03-28T15:24:04.897-04:00WHITE PRIVILEGE AND RACE IN AMERICAWednesday, March 14, 2012 5:00 PM to 6:30 PM<br />

Robert Jensen, professor in the School of Journalism at University of Texas at Austin discussed white privilege and race in America. Among other things, Professor Jensen's work puts a critical focus on American society to help with understanding the persistence of institutional and unconscious racism within it. His opinion and analytic pieces on subjects such as foreign policy, politics, race, and gender have appeared in papers and on websites around the world, both mainstream and alternative.OIA Intercultural Programminghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10632629740857375533noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-589689424138946382.post-79418970900194903372012-03-28T15:21:00.000-04:002012-03-28T15:21:38.363-04:00HOW TO GROW UP? – Teacup discussionThursday, February 23, 2012 – 12:30pm-1:30pm<br />
<br />
The Office of Intercultural Affairs invited all children, big and small, for a discussion on growing up. Chocolate milk and cookies accompanied a debate on the pros and cons of being a grown up, what it means to be a grown up, and what growing up really entails. We also looked at the societal and cultural differences in perceptions of adulthood, parental supervision, and independence. For those who were worried about the seriousness of the conversation, we provided coloring books and crayons.<br />
<br />
And the crayons helped a lot, as the discussion moved from lighthearted chat on who we wanted to be when we grew up to a serious debate on when one is emotionally mature enough to call oneself a grown-up. We reached no conclusions, but thinking about these issues made us – especially graduating seniors - look differently at what could possibly happen to us in June…<br />
<br />
We also had a ton of really cute posters, courtesy of Annalise! Which one is your favorite?<br />

Melissa Harris-Perry investigates the challenges facing contemporary black Americans. She works to understand the multiple creative ways that African American find agency in response to these challenges. Her latest book, <i>Sister Citizen: Shame, Stereotypes, and Black Women in America</i> (Yale 2011), argues that persistent harmful stereotypes - invisible to many but painfully familiar to black women - profoundly shape black women's politics, contribute to policies that treat them unfairly, and make it difficult for black women to assert their rights in the political arena.<br />
As well as a contribution to the African American Intellectual Culture Series, Melissa Harris-Perry's talk is a Clark Presidential Lecture and part of the university's celebration of Black History Month. The theme for the month's programs - "Black is..." - is both a statement and a question. It is designed to explore the complexities, challenges and opportunities of African American identity today.<br />

OIA’s very own fashionista, Deviyani Dixit, pointed out that clothing is much more than what we wear. The fabric, patterns, and designs tell so much about a person and the culture they are from. The multicultural fashion show was a fun way to exhibit the different cultures represented on the Clark campus.OIA Intercultural Programminghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10632629740857375533noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-589689424138946382.post-76351636928519344962012-03-28T15:07:00.000-04:002012-03-28T15:07:40.538-04:00ASIAN NEW YEARSaturday, January 28, 2012 – 2:00pm-5:00pm<br />

The Year of the Dragon has come, and OIA invited all Clark students to join us in celebrating Asian New Year! This year, along with co-sponsors from ACS and individual students, we presented individual stations showcasing culture and food from Bhutan, China, South Korea, Thailand and Vietnam. As each country celebrates New Year differently, we presented a variety of traditions and perspectives on Lunar New Year. Thank you to all who attended and celebrated with us!OIA Intercultural Programminghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10632629740857375533noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-589689424138946382.post-71173311995199663062012-03-28T15:03:00.000-04:002012-03-28T15:03:27.904-04:00INSIDE THE HOT POT: BHUTANFriday, December 2, 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM<br />
