Navigating Multiple Identities- All

- Intersection of social and personal acts/behaviors responding to social contexts

- The ways identities overlap and impact students' lived experiences

-Barriers for students may look very different; solutions can be inclusive

- The unique ways in which our identities, and therefore our oppressions, interlock to impact
our social opportunity

š Challenges:
1. A-Trying to navigate and gain institutional knowledge (how do we find out what we don't
know?)
2. H- Not having a full understanding of the SUYI program (how do we give recommendations with
feeling that we don’t have a full understanding of the work they do)
