Hi everyone,
I wanted to say "welcome" to our new moderator of the Gender Gap list - Kevin Gorman.
Kevin is an advocate for "minding the gap", as a student at UC Berkeley, he is the first to bring the ambassador program to a women's studies department, which will be executed this spring. Kevin has the patience and ability to maintain sensitive subjects on Wikipedia and beyond, showing his ability to be patient, yet honest, on subjects such as men's rights, domestic abuse, and beyond. As a colleague, I have been nothing but impressed with Kevin's input, honesty, and strength regarding sensitive subjects.
Both Sue and I are delighted to have Kevin involved here in the list; thank you Kevin!
-Sarah
Yay! Welcome!
From, Emily

This one is an ethnic studies course, not a women's studies course :) but it's still going to be awesome anyway, and will hopefully lead to valuable collaborations with both departments - I think there's pretty awesome synergy between our mission and the mission of the academy in general, but especially between us and departments like these.
I'm primarily an editor on ENWP, under the username kgorman-ucb. I also am involved in various other real-world outreach (including some gendergap related stuff,) and was a communications intern for the foundation for a while.
Anyway, hi y'all.
