By Donna Braquet, Director of the Pride

With the new semester beginning and an influx
of new students on campus, it is important to
participate in making our campus welcoming
and inclusive for all. One way to do that is to
use a student’s chosen name and their correct
pronouns.
We should not assume someone’s gender by
their appearance, nor by what is listed on a
roster or in student information systems.
Transgender people and people who do not
identity within the gender binary may use a
different name than their legal name and
pronouns of their gender identity, rather than
the pronouns of the sex they were assigned at
birth.
Introductions
In the first weeks of classes, instead of calling
roll, ask everyone to provide their name and
pronouns. This ensures you are not singling
out transgender or non-binary students. The
name a student uses may not be the one on
the official roster, and the roster name may
not be the same gender as the one the
student now uses.
This practice works outside of the classroom
as well. You can start meetings with
requesting introductions that include names
and pronouns, introduce yourself with your
name and chosen pronouns, or when providing
nametags, ask attendees to write in their name
and pronouns.
Gender-neutral pronouns
We are familiar with the singular pronouns
she, her, hers and he, him, his, but those are
not the only singular pronouns. In fact, there
are dozens of gender-neutral pronouns.
A few of the most common singular gender-
neutral pronouns are they, them , their (used
as singular), ze, hir, hirs, and xe, xem, xyr .
These may sound a little funny at first, but
only because they are new. The she and he
pronouns would sound strange too if we had
been taught ze when growing up.
How do you know?
How do you know what pronoun someone
uses? If you cannot use the methods
mentioned above, you can always politely ask.
“Oh, nice to meet you, [insert name]. What
pronouns should I use?” is a perfectly fine
question to ask.
The more we make sharing of pronouns a
universal practice, the more inclusive we will
be as a campus. When our organizational
culture shifts to where asking for
chosen names and pronouns is the standard
practice, it alleviates a heavy burden for
persons already marginalized by their gender
expression or identity.""

I try not to deal in micro aggressions. I usually revert to the macro kind. Boot to the head, a snappily racked 12 guage, the unmistakable sound of a semi auto jacking a round up the spout. You know, things that people should understand are an announcement that clearly an aggression is about to take place, and if they were smart they should be like bananas and split.

The whole 'micro' thing is a movement that I swear was created one night at a professorial conference after some quality weed had been vaporized. A sociology prof said she needed something to add to her course or else was in danger of losing her job. What kind of BS terminology could they come up with to create a new course of study and help her out? 'Microaggressions' was the answer.

So I can't say I have black friends as that's 'aggressive'. I can't say that I am not a racist, because that means I actually am. I can't ask the smartest kid in class for math help if he or she is Asian, because that's racist. Saying to someone rocking an afro that they have nice hair is aggressive. Commenting that the black girl dances well is racist. It's just stunning how easily offended someone can get now. Well actually, just if you are not a white person. I mean what would be a 'white person' food? Tuna casserole? So if the university or college serves tuna casserole in the cafeteria, can white people call that institutional racism? Maybe if the vending machine has PB&J sandwiches (on white bread!) can we sue the vending company for mental anguish?

Time for whitey to get some payback! Where's my lawyer? Can we get CNN in on this? "The White Shaming of America" tonight at 10pm on CNN. Don Lemon explores the urgent socio-economic plight of the lily white heterosexual, and how society oppresses and belittles them at every turn......





society run by white people, founded by white people for the benefit of white people is OPRESSING white people? laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh

Amazing how some people are so into their tunnel vision that they can't recognize obvious sarcasm even if it bit 'em in the butt.:laughing: Kinda like those idiot college kids the thread is about so at least they can say they're on topic. Guess that's just a symptom of their "I'm a victim" ideology though.
