IdeaFest 2019: Living in the margins of higher education
2019-03-07 @ 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM
FreeLiving in the margins of higher education
Diversity is a big topic in Canada. Different institutions, including universities, work towards being inclusive of minorities based on race, sexual orientation, disabilities, and gender. But, a key diversity area is often left out of conversations and policies: social class. Students and professors from poverty- and working-class backgrounds often remain an invisible minority, living in the margins of higher education. This interactive, theatric, and presentation-style event showcases the silenced voices of working- and poverty-class students and professors in order to address collectively this issue.
