The activism and policies not only has benefitted queer scholars but also several cis scholars. With this paper, we genuinely want to show why queer advocacy is important especially in current climate. The trans rights are rolling back. I hope this reminds us all why a community is important.

I will be presenting our work titled "Making a Name for Myself: On Academic Naming Policies and their Impact" this week at #FAccT2026. This paper talks about why names matter, why name change policies are important, how people benefit from it and what's still left to do.
