카지노 게임 컬렉션When I learned that I was the first cis-male to graduate with a concentration in Women카지노 게임 컬렉션s Studies, I immediately thought of what I had in common with trailblazers like Annie Fowler and Eliza Fitzgerald, the first women to earn degrees at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s -- which is, of course, nothing.  

These women were met with ridicule and hostility from outside and within Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s.  They had obstacles to their graduation that no man ever had to face.

The general reaction to my being in Women카지노 게임 컬렉션s Studies was no reaction at all.  I didn카지노 게임 컬렉션t so much 카지노 게임 컬렉션blaze a trail카지노 게임 컬렉션 as walk down a comfortable, well-signed, path.  Never did anyone suggest to me that I had no right to be there or treat me with the slightest hostility.  

The most compelling evidence for the insignificance of my 카지노 게임 컬렉션first,카지노 게임 컬렉션 though, is that I didn카지노 게임 컬렉션t even know about it until a few weeks ago when I was asked to write a few words about my experience in Women카지노 게임 컬렉션s Studies.  But while I카지노 게임 컬렉션m not sure I카지노 게임 컬렉션ve earned this platform, that won카지노 게임 컬렉션t keep me from using it!   

After a few years of pursuing a Math degree, I knew my university education was missing something.  I took Women카지노 게임 컬렉션s Studies 100 out of curiosity and because it was so different than my other courses.  By the end of the first class, I was hooked and I left Math for Women카지노 게임 컬렉션s Studies that year.   

Women카지노 게임 컬렉션s Studies changed me forever.  It helped me see power: who had it, who benefited from it, who suffered at its hand, and how those who had it, ensured they kept it.  Women카지노 게임 컬렉션s Studies taught me to listen to voices I카지노 게임 컬렉션d never heard before.  Women카지노 게임 컬렉션s Studies helped me to see what was 카지노 게임 컬렉션wrong카지노 게임 컬렉션 and what I could do to help.  

Today I work as the Principal of an adult education centre located in a federal women카지노 게임 컬렉션s correctional facility.  It카지노 게임 컬렉션s certainly not where most Women카지노 게임 컬렉션s Studies students see themselves working (I certainly didn카지노 게임 컬렉션t).  But in this job, I use what I learned in Women카지노 게임 컬렉션s Studies every single day.

I can카지노 게임 컬렉션t overstate how much Women카지노 게임 컬렉션s Studies at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s gave me, including this platform to say, 'Thank you.'카지노 게임 컬렉션
