The Lesbian, Bisexual, and Gay studies program marked its 10th anniversary with a two-day conference held on Nov. 19 and 20 that was entitled "The Queer's English."
The event opened with a speech by Provost Biddy Martin. Seven Cornell alumni also spoke about their work in the field of LBG studies.
"It was amazing to see how successful and wonderful our graduate students were and have current students interact with them," said Prof. Amy Villarejo, feminist, gender, and sexuality studies, and former chair of the LBG studies program.
The LBG studies program is run under the umbrella of the feminist, gender, and sexuality studies department, and is devoted to the role sexuality plays in social relations.
