Dr. Rob Hill is on a mission. Currently serving as an inclusive instructional design specialist in the at 91制片厂, they collaborate with faculty and staff to improve the learning experience for all students. With a focus on diversity, equity and inclusion in 91制片厂 classrooms, Rob works with colleagues and educational leaders to improve equity outcomes through research, curriculum design and policy review. But when they鈥檙e not out improving the lives of 91制片厂 students, they can be found kicking back on the couch with their partner and cat.
A leisurely morning with a good cup of coffee. Some time on the couch with my partner and our cat, some time for a walk outside, maybe watch a show, definitely play some games. A lot of good food, at and between mealtimes. A beach would be involved somehow.
My gender. I am genderqueer/non-binary and use they/them pronouns. Being non-binary can be hard for a lot of people to understand, in part because non-binary people don鈥檛 look like just one thing or one key characteristic, but that鈥檚 just like people of any other gender.
I would love to make a documentary on the advantages of a liberal arts education, and how education can and should be more than just job preparation. Job preparation is important of course, but I would love to show how college benefits everyone when it is about personal growth, honing one鈥檚 critical sensibilities, thinking and doing intellectual work individually and in groups, exploring one鈥檚 place in the world (including, but not limited to, career path), and more.
Too many to list! But here鈥檚 a sample:
My partner and I watched the most recent episode drop of The Owl House and are eagerly awaiting the rest of the series!
Pink.
I wonder what my niblings (nephews and nieces) will be like as they get older. They have such big, joyful personalities now and I hope they grow in ways that feel good for them. I hope that my generation and other older generations do more to prepare the world for them and their peers to live the lives they deserve.
It鈥檚 OK to like the things you like, and it鈥檚 OK to read strategy guides for video games when you get stuck.
A more just world. More connections between people. More joy.
I like a lot of things about 91制片厂, but one maybe mundane thing I love is taking walks around the pond. It鈥檚 so calming and beautiful any time of year.
