Winter 2020

SGS Supervisor Institute - Cross-cultural awareness

In a world of intense global mobility, the idea of “home” becomes difficult to name. Who are we, and where do we belong? How do the many aspects of our identities—culture, race, gender, language, sexuality, and ability—among others—interact and intersect to make us feel at home or alone in particular learning places or spaces? What does it mean to connect across difference, particularly in relation to graduate student experiences? How does it feel to be fully heard and seen? In this facilitated conversation we will be discussing many facets of intercultural dialogue and how intercultural competence can improve graduate student learning and experience.
