<strong style="font-family:georgia,times,times new roman,serif"><font color="#800A00">Simone de Beauvoir </font></strong><font face="georgia, times, times new roman, serif"> (1908—1986) was a preeminent and influential French existentialist philosopher, feminist and writer. She produced a rich corpus of writings including works on ethics, feminism, fiction, autobiography, and politics. Perhaps her most well known work is her treatise <em>The Second Sex</em>, a detailed analysis of women's oppression and a foundational tract of contemporary feminism. Here Beauvoir first articulated what has come to be known as the sex-gender distinction, i.e. the distinction between biological sex and the social and historical construction of gender and its attendant stereotypes.</font></div>

<strong>Where: </strong>Muddy Charles Pub in Walker Memorial<br>
The GSC has recently created a Diversity and Inclusion Subcommittee to explore ways for underrepresented groups at MIT to work together to achieve common goals. The women's constituency representative works with GW@MIT to discuss women's issues on the subcommittee. This year's rep is Jane Heyes (<a href="mailto:jeheyes@mit.edu">jeheyes@mit.edu</a>), and if you're interested in contacting the committee chairs and the women's rep with any ideas or concerns, please send an email to <a href="mailto:gsc-diversity-women@mit.edu" target="_blank" style="color:#2baadf;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline">gsc-diversity-women@mit.edu</a>.<br>
<br>
Come meet your Diversity and Inclusion Subcommittee constituency representatives! There will be free pizza at the Muddy Charles Pub in Walker Memorial, and the constituency representatives will be there to chat informally and hear about your experiences and concerns at MIT. The event is co-sponsored by GW@MIT and other organizations, and all MIT grad students are invited. For the Muddy, you'll need to be at least 21 years old with a government ID to get in.</span></div>

We are going to have our first executive board and committees! If you're interested in joining the board, read through the position descriptions <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ii8hMRrHaHFyoG_3nMAk5aw5ezE0E6mBvvDlGr_88yA/edit" target="_blank" style="color:#2baadf;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline">here</a>. We plan to have monthly meetings, likely weekday evenings around 6pm, which will be hosted at each of the member schools throughout the year. If you don't want to commit to being on the board but still want to be involved, there's also the option of joining a committee or just joining the email list.

This interdisciplinary lecture will address a proposed shift to make multi-stall bathrooms on campus accessible to people of all genders, ages, sizes, and abilities. Professor and architect Joel Sanders, will situate this issue in a cultural/historical context, charting the evolution of his thinking about the bathroom as an overdetermined space that registers deep seated cultural conceptions about gender, abjection and embodied difference. Then he will present design prototypes for inclusive restrooms. Lawyer Shiona Heru, will address both the legality and cost affectedness involved with implementing gender neutral bathrooms on campus. This is a joint event between MIT’s Architecture Department, the City Design and Development group, and the Women’s and Gender Studies Program. Sonny Oram, Founding Editor of Qwear, will moderate the discussion to follow.<br>
