OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
We are becoming increasingly aware of transgender issues – not least in the Humanities Division, where a high percentage of trans identifying student respondents to the recent Oxford Student Union Trans Report hail from. Dr Clara Barker, a high profile transwoman in the University, is running a workshop to help staff answer some key questions. What does it mean to be transgender? Why are people trans? What do all the different terms mean? What can I ask and what should I avoid? Dr Barker covers the basics and aims to answer all your questions in this transgender 101. Oxford SU representatives will discuss the Trans Report and student experiences.
Lunch is provided.
