  • Salary Negotiation for Women

    Virtual event via Zoom

    Salary negotiations are not easy, and research indicates that there are special challenges for women. This workshop builds on thinking first published in the popular book, "Women Don’t Ask", as well as upon recent research. You will have the opportunity to practice 1) setting personal expectations, 2) thinking creatively about negotiables, 3) perfecting your narrative, and 4) negotiating from a mutual gain point of view. An important element will be the review of basic skills in assertion and inquiry. This workshop will be facilitated by Prof. Catherine Gerard. It is presented by the Conflict Management Center and sponsored by PARCC.

  • The AGSO presents Dr. Catherine Besteman

    Virtual Zoom

    Dr. Catherine Besteman will be speaking on her most recent publication, “Militarized Global Apartheid.” Catherine Besteman offers a sweeping theorization of the ways in which countries from the global north are reproducing South Africa's apartheid system on a worldwide scale to control the mobility and labor of people from the global south. Exploring the different manifestations of global apartheid, Besteman traces how militarization and securitization reconfigure older forms of white supremacy and deploy them in new contexts to maintain this racialized global order. Dr. Besteman has taught anthropology and African studies at Colby College since 1994. Her research focuses on racism, immigration and mobility, inequality, and social transformation—topics she has studied in South Africa, Somalia, and the United States. She recently received fellowships from the Rockefeller Foundation, the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation, and the American Council of Learned Societies for her research on Somali refugees in the United States. She has authored seven books and over 40 articles.
