Professor in the Department of Education and Language Acquisition at LaGuardia Community College, CUNY

Asociate Professor, Modern Languages Department, Borough of Manhattan Community College

I use my role in higher education as an adjunct lecturer and the strategic lenses of Deconstruction, Structuralism, Gender and Feminism (all definitions and iterations) to not only facilitate students' access, retention, and success but also to promulgate issues pertaining to human dignity and social justice at the global level, given that the students must be aware of what they have (and do not have) in terms of both Rule of Law and material goods in order that they might preserve it for themselves and their progeny and in the case of what society lacks work toward its obtention toward the greater good; one person left behind means that all are left behind in some crucial/critical manner.
