In recognition of Women’s History Month, women faculty were celebrated for their variety of talents Tuesday afternoon at the Reception Celebrating the Teaching and Research of Baylor Women Faculty.
As a woman, one of my go-to defenses against implicit sexism is repressing my feminine traits in favor of masculine ones. In classes, when I feel underestimated, I quickly bring to mind all my knowledge of football and the stock market. I make sure to hide my pink nails and try not to bring up Taylor Swift. Our “girliness” doesn’t imply inability.
As we watch Sing next year, I challenge us to revisit our expectations. Ask yourself what is entertaining and what is excellent, and why you believe an act fits in either category (or both).

“I’m interested to see how people respond to the argument about shared devotional techniques between poetry and painting from Catholic and Protestant,” Knoppers said.
