Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
The Trans Studies Working Group is an emergent cohort of faculty, students, artists, and activists that will serve as an institutional base for trans studies at Oxford, and that seeks to nurture cross-disciplinary trans thought within and beyond the university.
Our first meeting will occur on 22 November, 15:00-17:00, at Schwarzman Centre for the Humanities (Seminar Room 56) in response to the theme of Trans Study and Remembrance. All critical perspectives that attend to trans as analytic, methodology, orientation, or praxis, or to its intersections with critical race, gender, sexuality, and disability studies, are welcome. No RSVP required. Email samir.ravi@stcatz.ox.ac.uk to join the mailing list.
