At CLAGS we have decided to address the growing importance of secondary educational systems as a site for the struggle for Igbtq rights.
Supreme Court To Rule On Student Fees Case, Arthur S. Leonard
Supreme Court To Rule On Student Fees Case, Arthur S. Leonard
Center for LGBTQ Studies (CLAGS)
The U.S. Supreme Court announced March 29 that it will intervene in the "culture wars" raging in academia by considering whether public university students have a constitutional right to block use of their student activity fees by student organizations of which they disapprove. Lesbian and gay studies programs, such as CLAGS, are at the heart of these culture wars, as right-wing groups raise public controversies about the discussion of sexuality in the academy and question the very legitimacy of lesbian and gay studies as an academic discipline.
Local/Global Conference Stages Conversation About Queer Future, Chandan Reddy
Local/Global Conference Stages Conversation About Queer Future, Chandan Reddy
Center for LGBTQ Studies (CLAGS)
On April 23rd and 24th, CLAGS hosted Local Politics and Global Change: Academics and Activists Thinking About a Queer Future. The conference employed an innovative structure within which panelists, rather than delivering papers on their individual skill area or academic interest, were asked to respond from their located standpoint to prepared questions. These questions elaborated upon the broad topic of each panel and roundtable, which also included extended Q&A periods that encouraged conversation between "audience," moderator, and panelists. To describe the format seems noteworthy because it contributed in part to one of the most outstanding features of this conference: There …

The CUNY Graduate Center (within which CLAGS is housed) draws its faculty from the senior colleges and community colleges of the CUNY system. This consortial arrangement means that CLAGS is uniquely positioned to serve as a focal point through which queer students and academics at all the CUNY campuses can network with each other.
Redefining 'Institution', Alisa Solomon
Redefining 'Institution', Alisa Solomon
Center for LGBTQ Studies (CLAGS)
I'm thrilled and honored to be succeeding Jill Dolan as Executive Director of CLAGS. Thanks to Jill and to Marty Duberman before her—and to all past and current Board members and to the miracle-working staff—CLAGS is a secure and solid institution. Let me quickly explain what I mean by 'institution' for it is a word I don't always use comfortably as it tends to conjure in my bohemian brain images of stuffiness and caution, bureaucratic stasis and lumbering loss of purpose. That's the last thing CLAGS has become. On the contrary, CLAGS remains lively, responsive, provocative, and ever self-critical.
A Fond Farewell, Jill Dolan
A Fond Farewell, Jill Dolan
Center for LGBTQ Studies (CLAGS)
Sadly, this is my last column as the Executive Director of CLAGS. After five years teaching and working at CUNY's Graduate Center, I've decided to accept a position at the University of Texas at Austin. This was a difficult decision to make, but the offer of an endowed chair in the Department of Theatre and Dance at UT was finally too attractive to pass up.
At Risk In The Writing Classroom: Negotiating A Lesbian Teacher Identity, Irene G. Meaker
At Risk In The Writing Classroom: Negotiating A Lesbian Teacher Identity, Irene G. Meaker
Department of English: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
"Education is a fearful enterprise," says teacher and philosopher, Parker Palmer. Student-centered/ processoriented pedagogy asks teachers to step out from behind the relative safety of the teacher mask and to enter the risky arena of learning. For the writing teacher, a special challenge is to help students negotiate the risks inherent in the act of writing and in sharing writing with the "Other."
To prevent fears from dominating our students, teachers must model risk-taking and risk negotiation. In my own teaching, my fears around students' reactions to learning my sexual identity meant that I more often reinforced fears than dispelled …
State Should Support Equal Marriage, The Maine Campus Editorial Position Board
State Should Support Equal Marriage, The Maine Campus Editorial Position Board
Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion
Yesterday, we heard both sides of the same-sex marriage debate making their case in Augusta. Those arguments have convened us that marriage equality, as it is proposed in Sen. Dennis Damon's bill, LD 1020, poses no threat to Maine's straight marriages or to its religious faithful.
Equality And The Miss Usa Pageant, Rhiannon Sawtelle
Equality And The Miss Usa Pageant, Rhiannon Sawtelle
Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion
Here is my embarrassing admission for the week: I watched the Miss USA pageant last Sunday. My roommate and I criticized the women, picked our favorites and hoped one of them would trip on stage. We made it through the swimsuit competition, the evening gown walk and held our breaths when the time came for questioning. Miss California, a blonde Barbie® look-alike, took the stage and by the luck of the draw was questioned by Perez Hilton, a gay gossip-queen blogger. He asked her if she believed same-sex marriage should be legalized in every state.

Wilde Stein requested funds from the University of Maine General Student Senate April 21 for a bus to the Augusta hearing of the gay-marriage bill. It was a request that would send students to a "potentially hostile environment" if granted, Sen. Sean Rankin said.

Sex Matters: In Honor Of "Pride Week" At The University Of Maine, Sandra L. Caron
Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion
This week our university is celebrating "Pride Week" in an attempt to educate and honor gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered issues. There are a number of programs planned throughout the week. This time provides us with an opportunity for education, as well as reflection and discussion. In his writing, "Homophobia on the College Campus," Brian McNaught (author of "On Being Gay," "Gay Issues in the Workplace," and "Now That I'm Out, What Do I Do?") provides us with a list of questions to prompt such a discussion. A sampling of these questions are listed below. As you read each one, …
Bodybuilder Recounts Struggles Of Being Gay, Debra Hatch
Bodybuilder Recounts Struggles Of Being Gay, Debra Hatch
Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion
Bob Paris' image as "Mr. Universe" and "Mr. America" depended on his masculinity, but it all changed when he announced he was gay. Paris had intended his statement to Ironman magazine to be one speaking about love and commitment, not to draw attention to himself and his sexuality. Instead it destroyed his career and four year run of popularity. No athletes in the mainstream have ever come out during their career to say they were homosexual.

Clags Forms New Advocacy Committee, Elizabeth Freeman
Center for LGBTQ Studies (CLAGS)
During the 1990s, attacks on the arts and higher education have demonized Women's Studies and Gay/Lesbian Studies, as well as those courses designed to make higher education available to academically underprivileged students. The CLAGS Board of Directors has come to feel that CLAGS should be taking a leading role in debates that use homophobia, racism, and sexism to justify cuts in funding for the arts and education, restrictions on freedom of academic and artistic expression, and policies that restrict access to higher learning. For this reason, we have formed a Board committee for advocacy in the arts and education.

Politics, Pedagogy, And Shaping Public Policy, Jill Dolan
Center for LGBTQ Studies (CLAGS)
We never exactly know when history is going to catch up with us, when we'll be in the midst of a crucial moment to which posterity will refer as key, as significant, as a lynchpin on which other moments, other decisions, other understandings were founded. The impeachment hearings recently conducted in the House of Representatives dragged us all, unwilling and amazed, into a dark hour of American politics, one in which partisan fury and ideological hatred are translated into strategies of power that disregard and reverse electoral politics. There's much to say about the disappointing performance of Bill Clinton as …
