Abstract

Bard College at Simon’s Rock offers a non-traditional entry point into the workforce. A core value of the institution is to encourage students to define and embrace their uniqueness whilst learning to navigate hegemonic socio-cultural beliefs. Therefore, this lesson seeks to promote a self-reflection on authenticity and how one navigates through self-definition in a system that profits off of individualism predicated on adherence to societal normativity.
