MULTIPLE AUTISMS BOOK LAUNCH

Posted by Admin On 3:37:00 PM 0 comments

On April 19, 2016 at 7:30 p.m. Jennifer Singh will be launching her book at
Charis Books in Little Five Points.

Is there a gene for autism? Jennifer Singh, a sociologist of science,
technology, and medicine at Georgia Tech, investigates this very question in her
new book Multiple Autisms: Spectrums of Advocacy and Genomic Science. The book
critically examines the practices, politics, and meanings of autism genetics
from scientific, cultural, and social perspectives. Based on over 70 interviews
with scientists, parents, and people living with autism, the book charts parent
activism and their promotion of autism genetics research, the scientific
optimism and subsequent failure of finding a gene for autism, and the utility of
genetic information for the immediate lives of people living with autism. Singh
will visit Charis to discuss her findings about the ever-expanding meanings of
autism from those who study it and to those who live with autism everyday. This
is a Charis Circle Urban Sustainability and Wellness event.

TAKE BACK THE NIGHT

Posted by Admin On 11:20:00 AM 0 comments

Please join us for Georgia Tech's 22nd annual Take Back the Night, a candlelight
vigil dedicated to honoring survivors of sexual violence, including rape and
sexual assault, dating violence, and stalking. Every year, we invite Georgia
Tech community members to share their stories of their experience with sexual or
relationship violence, either through anonymous submission or by reading it at
Take Back the Night. This powerful event is focused on supporting and elevating
the voices of survivors, and educating our community about these issues.

Sexual violence is an issue that can impact anyone. As long as sexual violence
impacts one person on our campus, it impacts all of us. We believe that one of
the key steps to ending sexual and relationship violence is believing survivors
and creating spaces to allow survivors to share their stories, whether they
happened recently or years ago. The courage and strength in sharing their
stories will help other survivors know that they are not alone, and that we do
not tolerate sexual violence or let it go silently into the night.

There will be counselors and other resources available at the event.

This event is part Sexual Assault Awareness Month and is hosted by the VOICE
initiative, PAUSE student organization, the Women's Resource Center, and the
Office of Health Promotion. Learn more about Take Back the Night and our
upcoming Teal Ribbon Day of Action on April 14 at www.voice.gatech.edu.

inequalities. Intended to be far more than a simple lecture course, the class
will provide students with numerous opportunities to deeply engage with the
course material through response memos, small group discussions, conversations
with experts on course topics, and an independent (group) research project. This
course qualifies as an elective for the Health, Medicine and Society (HMS) Minor
in the School of History and Sociology.
