Abstract
“If you ask people their professional origin stories, so many will answer that a teacher told them they had skill or talent and that tiny little interaction changed their entire trajectory,” said Dr. Jill Delston, professor of philosophy at the University of Missouri St. Louis (UMSL), author of Medical Sexism: Contraception Access, Reproductive Medicine, and Health Care and co-editor of the textbook Applied Ethics: A Multicultural Approach .
Jill’s own origin story has its roots at GDS through a close read of Dealing with Dragons , an introduction to philosophy, a community of caring educators, and a collection of well-placed microaffirmations. Her GDS story continues to inform the teacher, researcher, and advocate she is today.
