<\/em>Today is International Pronouns Day! Using correct pronouns respects each other’s identity and fosters inclusivity. Pronouns are used every day to communicate with one another in and out of the workplace, and often they are assigned based on pre-conceived biases and perceptions. By educating about personal pronouns, we promote understanding and celebrate everyone\u2019s intersecting identities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

International Pronouns Day seeks to make respecting, sharing and educating about personal pronouns commonplace. This day raises the MSU community\u2019s awareness to be gender inclusive and reminds us of the basic human dignity of appreciating and celebrating everyone\u2019s multiple, intersecting identities.
