This event is hosted by the QUIC and SASS.

This session aims to spark a conversation on the issue of accent discrimination in higher education. Join us to discover a few findings from a Queen’s report on perceptions of accent and authority among instructors and discuss what accent is and whether it matters in communication in higher education. Have stories to share? We will make space to listen to your experiences and think together about how we can raise awareness of this issue in our community.
