Musings on Diversity and Inclusion in Physics

Every term, FemPhys invites a stellar individual to share their thoughts, lecture-style. This term, Dr. Amanda Peet from the University of Toronto, a string theorist interested in black holes and quantum gravity, will share their musings on diversity and inclusion in their field. We'll listen, have some lunch, and ask Dr. Peet a few questions.

Discussion: Feminism 101

There's a lot out there to learn about feminism & so many places to start. Here's one of those places: a guided discussion covering basic facts, common questions, and some definitions relevant to feminism here and now. We intend this discussion to be a space for people who are not or are somewhat familiar with the language and motivations of feminism. We encourage you to bring an open mind and lots of questions. Everyone is welcome!
