Special Guest This Week!

The University of Hartford is presenting a very special guest this week on campus. Transactivist Michael Alroy will be giving a seminar this week in the Hillel Campus Center Rooms 116 and 118 from 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 27th.

Michael Alroy will be sharing his experiences growing up in Israel among the Jewish faith, family, and service in the Israeli Defense Force as a transgender individual. Breaking down his experiences with how society perceived him within Israel and how he was able to overcome the fear and discrimination projected on him, he became the confident person he is today.

Raising conversations on the ongoing state of transphobia often projected toward trans individuals and other members of the LGBTQIA+ communityThe Office of Jewish Life welcomes all students and faculty to participate in this seminar and be a part of the conversation about making our campus more inclusive for every person that makes up life here at UHART.
