According to his Weil\u2019s on the University of Kansas <a href=\"https:\/\/wgss.ku.edu\/people\/abraham-weil\">website<\/a>, he is the general editor of TSQ: Transgender Studies Quarterly. During lunch, he will be speaking on the topic of \u201cAstroTERFs: Reproductive Justice Beyond the Trans\/TERF Dialectic.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rose Remember, a student on the planning committee, explains how the conference works. \u201cPeople can come and go as their schedules allow, and it&#8217;s absolutely ok if people just want to pop in for the keynote or just to see a friend present!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>The student organization Planned Parenthood Generation Action (PPGA) is hosting a Sexual Health and Consent Teach-In, which will be in <strong>Orton Center from 6:45 to 8 p.m. on March 20<\/strong>.

They plan to present the results at the teach-in to \u201csee how many people on campus are affected by it and so we can see what else we can do to address this issue on campus,\u201d according to PPGA member Alyssa Rodriguez. \u201cWe just want to make sure the culture on campus is safe, especially at parties.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both of these events aim to create a more inclusive and safe campus for all students.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Photo by Bec Gage.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Department is hosting the annual Social Justice Conference.
