? This study is grounded in my own personal experiences in a Black female academic space and through stories of Black womxn to illustrate mechanisms of whiteness. Furthermore, these experiences will be examined through a critical race theory lens. The goal of this research is to untangle the complexities of whiteness with the hope of creating space centered around Black womxn scholars. Why I majored in Gender, Sexuality, and Race Studies: I majored in WMGS/GSRS because I am invested in deconstructing

Studies.   Within our department we teach courses that draw on other areas like medicine, business, gender studies, critical race theory and art and bring philosophy into dialogue with those areas and to facilitate critical examination of those areas.  We do not see this work as an add-on to our ‘real’ work in philosophy, but rather as an expression of how we practice and engage in the work of philosophy as a discipline. This means is that we must have a clear understanding  of and be firmly rooted in

The Role of Computer Science in Liberal Arts Education & SocietyComputer Science integrates three fundamental processes: theory (from mathematics), abstraction (based on the scientific method), and design (from engineering) [1]. The problem solving perspectives emphasized in CS provide important mental models for addressing problems in many disciplines. This is sometimes called “algorithmic thinking” or “computational thinking.” As described by Walker et. al., “methodologies within computer
