Let's Talk About Sex Ed: Examining Its Place and Purpose in Higher Education

<p>About This Episode:</p><p>In many parts of the U.S., comprehensive sex education is startlingly absent. With only 16 states mandating contraception education, 34 states focusing primarily on abstinence, and 13 states lacking age-appropriate and evidence-based standards, the current landscape of sex education is fragmented. This disparity becomes even starker when considering that seven states legally prohibit LGBTQIA-inclusive sex ed.</p><p>The implications of this patchwork system go beyond high school. As a significant number of students enter college unprepared to address sexual health, relationships, and consent, universities are now faced with a pressing dilemma: Should they take on the responsibility of providing sex education? Could this potentially mitigate the issue of sexual assault on campuses?</p><p>Join us on <i>Higher Ed Rewired</i> as we delve into this critical topic, asking the question: “Should college students receive sex ed as a part of their collegiate education?”</p><p>Featured on This Episode:</p><ul><li><a href="https://www.sexualityeducation.com/bios.php">Dorian Solot</a> is a sexuality and relationship educator who has written for and taught students of all ages, from kindergarten to senior citizens.

Weighted Judgments: The Unspoken Bias in Higher Ed

<p>About This Episode:</p><p>In this enlightening episode, we dive deep into an often-silent challenge faced by plus-sized students in the realm of higher education. Despite more than two-thirds of adults in the US being over a size 14, there exists an underlying bias against students based on their body size, overshadowing their academic achievements. From unsettling findings at Cal State Long Beach and Mt. St. Vincent, revealing stereotypes about GPA perceptions and team collaboration preferences, to tangible obstacles like inaccessible campus resources, the gravity of the situation is undeniable. Join us as we shed light on the firsthand experiences of these students, engage with researchers unraveling the complexities of weight stigma in academia, and explore solutions that can pave the way for a truly inclusive campus culture. Dive into a discussion on the tangible effects of this bias and the steps universities can take to rectify this deep-rooted prejudice.</p><p>Featured on This Episode:</p><ul><li><a href="https://www.terahjay.com/">Terah Jay Stewart</a> serves as an assistant professor of higher education and student affairs at Iowa State University.

He also does conceptual and empirical work on antiblackness in non-black communities of color. His work often centers on critical disruptive onto-epistemological frameworks and theories to destabilize dominant ways of knowing and being; including Black/endarkened feminist, womanist, and afro pessimist perspectives</li><li><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/amelrose">Andrea Melrose</a> serves as the Associate Director of Student Affairs at the University of Missouri-Saint Louis.
