Meet Taylor Cenac 카지노 게임 컬렉션 Black Studies administrative assistant
The Department of Gender Studies recently announced Taylor Cenac as the new Black Studies Program and Administrative Assistant.
In this newly created role, she is responsible for the daily administration and operation of the Black Studies undergraduate program, and she coordinates recruitment events, experiential learning opportunities, and student engagement activities. As the Black Studies Program and Administrative Assistant, Cenac will provide administrative, finance, and research support to Black Studies faculty members.
카지노 게임 컬렉션I really like doing administrative work, I like working in this department, I like the faculty in this department, so it made sense to apply for the position,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Cenac, who holds a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Women and Gender Studies from the 카지노게임사이트 of Toronto, an Master of Arts in Gender Studies from Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s, as well as a Social Service Worker Diploma from St. Lawrence College. 카지노 게임 컬렉션I카지노 게임 컬렉션m excited about the launch of the Black Studies program and having a chance to shape the course of the program is wonderful.카지노 게임 컬렉션
Cenac says things are going well and there is a heavy emphasis on taking time and being deliberate about how things are unfolding. She has already been involved in creating new partnerships with faculty, staff, students and also the extended Kingston community.
The program has been bolstered by the hiring of seven new faculty members including four Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s National Scholars (QNS) in Black Studies, a first for Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s 카지노게임사이트, and an additional three faculty members in Black Studies.
카지노 게임 컬렉션The cluster hire has been absolutely fantastic,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Cenac. 카지노 게임 컬렉션My workspace feels like an extension of my home when I come to campus and having new faculty members who moved to Kingston for this job is wonderful. We카지노 게임 컬렉션ve been able to work closely in the office, go for lunch, socialize. It카지노 게임 컬렉션s nice to be able to extend the work we do to our lives in our community.카지노 게임 컬렉션
With the new Black Studies program, Cenac says it카지노 게임 컬렉션s important that Black Studies is being recognized as a formal program even though students have been working in that area of academia for years. 카지노 게임 컬렉션I find it interesting how we are making space institutionally but it카지노 게임 컬렉션s not necessarily to fit Black Studies into the institution but to recognize the work of Black Studies in the institution and what is already happening. Now that it is formally recognized, that can come with funding, access, promotion, etc. Students who may not have seen themselves affiliated with Black Studies are doing that work and are now able to do that work more formally.카지노 게임 컬렉션
With any new opportunity, setting goals is critical for success. Cenac has several goals including seeing students inspired by the courses, enrolling in the courses, and seeing that excitement extend outward.
카지노 게임 컬렉션I did my Gender Studies practicum in the community when I first came to Kingston. I was able to take the work I was interested in and extend that to real life. I카지노 게임 컬렉션m excited to see how that happens for other people. Connective threads we may not be imagining today can be created very easily. That카지노 게임 컬렉션s what I카지노 게임 컬렉션m most looking forward to. How do students apply the work of Black Studies and the excitement of studying Black culture and Black people and practicing that.카지노 게임 컬렉션
Looking forward to the impact Black Studies could have on the university, Cenac says she is thinking the new programming could change how the university engages with EDII. Black Studies could also help build more robust discussions around EDII.
카지노 게임 컬렉션I카지노 게임 컬렉션m most hopeful that it will remind us that it카지노 게임 컬렉션s much more than the creation of a course, the hiring of new faculty, the writing of a mission statement. It must be so much more. We are planting seeds across the university and the creation of Black Studies could change the discussion across the university. I카지노 게임 컬렉션m hopeful what we learn and what we study is naturally woven through everything we do in FAS and at the university as a whole.카지노 게임 컬렉션
