CHALLENGING GENDER NORMS & STEREOTYPES

10:15 a.m. - 11:15 a.m. | KU 222

Gender norms are at the root of many issues facing women and men in society.

They are implicit or explicit rules, expectations, and standards placed on women

and men regarding how they should behave and be treated by society. They

can even impact how we choose our college major and can ultimately affect

our career trajectory. In this workshop, we will build awareness about gender

norms and why they matter, explore how gendered stereotypes affect education

and career prospects, and develop skills and strategies to better advocate for

ourselves and others.

came from, or who looks like me, that this is what our justice system should look

like, this is a job that I can aspire to have one day, then that’s a great thing.”

SALARY NEGOTIATION WORKSHOP

2:00 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. | 120 Adele

Most of us have heard about the gender pay gap- the difference between what

an average woman working full-time is paid compared to the average man.

Research indicates that the gender pay gap develops very early in women’s

careers; just one year out of college, women are paid 18% less than men doing

the same work. According to the 2017-2018 Flyer First Survey data, there was

nearly a $7,500 difference in what UD women and men reported earning just one

year after graduation. While the pay gap results from many factors — including

discrimination — gender differences in salary negotiation play a role.

In this workshop, students will learn to identify and articulate their personal value,

conduct objective market research to benchmark a target salary and benefits, and

develop an arsenal of persuasive responses and other strategies to successfully

negotiate for fair pay. Learning to confidently negotiate can help ensure everyone

can earn the pay and benefits they deserve in their first job after graduation, and

for the rest of their careers.
