A. Finn Enke wins Chancellor’s Distinguished Teaching Award

Finn Enke’s approach to teaching the history of sexuality and gender includes a focus on critical thinking, creating a classroom experience in which students say they are transformed, respected and educated. During 13 years of service, Enke has introduced trans scholarship to UW–Madison, teaching 14 different courses, including one of the nation’s first courses focused on transgender history. The only faculty member with a formal appointment in LGBTQ studies, and more recently, as the only openly trans faculty member on campus, Enke is also a respected and invaluable mentor for students from departments across campus.
