“Equitable Spaces: Creating a Gender Inclusive Classroom”
About: “Equitable Spaces: Creating a Gender Inclusive Classroom”
The academic classroom can be fraught with challenges to be fully equitable. Many times, our lexicon or subtle behaviors can accidentally create undesired repercussions, leaving students feeling unseen, unheard, or unwelcome. In this session, Stapleton will discuss what a classroom environment can look like to a transgender, non-binary, or gender expansive individual, and give ideas as to how to make them feel supported in the classroom environment. Participants will walk away feeling more comfortable working with these individuals and with tools to have a more equitable classroom.
About the Speaker: Ms. Melanie Stapleton is a native of Plano, Texas and has been active in choral music throughout her life. She holds a Bachelor of Music Education degree from Louisiana State University, where she minored in English, and a Master of Music Education degree from the University of North Texas. Ms. Stapleton began her career in Lamar CISD, teaching elementary music, before moving to La Porte ISD, where she was the head choral director at Lomax Junior High and the Baker Sixth Grade Campus. She has spent her remaining time in Houston ISD, originally as the head choral director at Meyerland Performing and Visual Arts Middle School, and now as the head choral director at Furr High School. Stapleton is a highly sought-after clinician and presenter having presented clinics, research, and professional development sessions across the country including, 2021 National ACDA, TMEA, AzMEA, TCDA, IMES, QMUE4, and many more. She is the founder of Blurring the Binary, a co-founder of (Trans)position, a professional organization for transgender music educators, and serves as an admin for the Facebook group, “I’m a Choir Director”. She is a strong believer in the power of the choral ensemble to create a musical family where all are respected and offered unconditional love. When not teaching, she can be found spending time with her Golden Retriever puppy, Queso, playing video games, cooking in her Instant Pot, or jamming to the latest choral hits.

Black History Month: Eduin Fraga Daily Stories - The Art of Resistance and Resilience
Category>Event, Type>Art Gallery
Art Gallery
Join Cuban-born contemporary artist Eduin Fraga as he shares his powerful work inspired by the complex realities of life in Cuba and the United States--from human rights to civil rights, chronicling both constraints to freedom and the joys of shared community. His unique and vibrant art incorporates images from both Cuban and American newspapers, capturing and preserving fragments of the two societies in which he lives.
About the Artist: Eduin Fraga was born in Havana, Cuba in 1974. He began painting over twenty years ago, blending newspaper collage and paint on canvas in order to capture dynamic fragments of society within the piece. Fraga considers his technique of painting and newspaper collage to be a unique mechanism through which to add complexity and richness to the work while simultaneously transforming it into a form of historical register of social experience. Fraga formally studied painting and drawing at the Experimental Center of Visual Arts in Havana and graduated in 2012. He has been invited to present his work in galleries and universities within the US and in Cuba. Some of his works are part of the Northwestern Mutual Insurance’s Giving Gallery, a 2018 exhibit that focuses on philanthropic partnerships in Milwaukee, WI. Fraga currently divides his time between Cuba and the United States.

In finances we need credit to buy a car, rent/buy a home, etc. In this workshop we look to break down credit in the world of academia and the world of finance. So join us and learn why Credit is King!
