discussion 10 22
- Remember the campus program for transgender students you were trying to garner support for back in your Week 5 discussion? Congratulations! It’s been approved and funded by the director of student activities. Eager to roll the program out, you create flyers and post them all over campus. You send emails to students, staff, and faculty. You reserve a room on campus with a capacity for 30 people, planning that the small campus population of transgender students would attend in addition to some of your colleagues. You order pizza; your PowerPoint is ready; it’s show time! On the night of the program, you show up a half hour early to set up, only to find a line outside of the door, all of the seats in the room taken, the pizza consumed, and crowds of people asking how they can support transgender students on campus.
- While this explosion of interest is obviously good news, it also means that you have totally underestimated your program’s needs. What are your next steps?
