TritonTalk

TritonTalk will feature Nina Rearden, director of Adult Education Faculty and Instruction, on Wednesday, May 15, 1 p.m., in the Library Upper Commons (A Building). Hosted by the Triton College Library, TritonTalk is a series of TEDx-style talks about topics and trends reflective of the college’s vibrant, multinational community.

Rearden will be discussing her experience as a trans woman and highlighting the many important aspects of being a member of the LGBTQIA+ community. Rearden will also speak of the nuances of the trans experience that are often overlooked, such as in prescriptive awareness training. She hopes to present a more expansive and humanistic perspective on the often poorly understood group.
