We’re excited to announce that registration is now open for Trans*Studies 2012, our first ever conference bringing together academics, professional practitioners, and activists to share ideas and foster multi-disciplinary collaboration.

Join us March 2-4, 2012 at the University of La Verne College of Law in Ontario, California, as we explore topics related to trans* identity, practice, communities, embodiment, and rights. We’ll also be hearing keynote presentations from some inspiring leaders in gender research, education, and advocacy.

If you’re interested in presenting your work, check out our call for proposals. Be sure to register online (with discounts for AGREAA members!). And for those interested in sponsorship or exhibiting at the conference, drop us a line for more details.

We look forward to welcoming you in March!

Thanks for joining us! Now we want to hear from you. AGREAA invites guest posts from academics and activists working on issues of gender and sexuality. Contact us to find out how to submit!

A few guidelines:

Try to keep it short! Less than 450 words is about right.
Make it useful. Highlight ideas resources that your friends and colleagues should know about.
Keep it relevant. We’re here to participate in a conversation. If you want to self promote, that’s cool, but kindly do it in your own little slice of the web.

We’re terribly excited to launch this new feature. Subscribe to our RSS and stay tuned for more!
