http://www.uvm.edu/~tic/Translating Identity is a free conference focusing on gender and gender identities. Open to the public, this event hopes to reach out to the University of Vermont, the Burlington community, and the nation as a whole to educate us all further about transgender issues. With multiple panels to choose from at any time, some panels will be directed towards trans people and others will be for those who are fairly unfamiliar with the transgender movement and the topic of gender identity.
This conference seeks to translate gender identity to both the queer community and its allies.
This conference is open to the national public, but space is limited!
There are 600 spaces open to the public and 300 available to UVM affiliates.
Please register as soon as possible to guarantee your spot.
Registration and attendance are free.
Just one of many presentations.
