2022 International Colloquium session 3
- Title: Intersecting Identities of International Faculty: Challenges and Well-being
- Date: Friday, April 15, 2022
- Time: 12 pm – 1 pm (ET)
- Description: In this session, three international scholars will talk about how their multiple intersecting identities impact their experiences and challenges living and working in the U.S. higher ed. Speakers will talk about 1) academic life and mothering and struggles between working as a full-time faculty and raising a little child, 2) how religiously minoritized faculty impact personal and professional lives, and 3) how being non-native English speaking Asian woman faculty’s identities shape her experiences and well-being while living and surviving in the U.S. higher education. Speakers will talk about how these multiple identities would impact on their daily lives, experiences, challenges, well-being and lessons they learned.
