UBC Graduate Research project seeks input from retired teachers

Recently retired educators (2008 or later) are being sought as interviewees in a UBC Graduate Research project. Specifically, retirees who have led to disrupt heteronormativity in schools. The term heteronormativity, refers to the way in which schools and society place expectations upon students and teachers to look and act heterosexual in all situations. This expectation within schools often serves to silence or further marginalize gender non-conforming and/or queer and questioning youth, staff and families.
