Scope and Contents

Interview with Helis Sikk, a fellow PhD student in the American Studies program, at Swem Library during Homecoming weekend. We discussed Helis’ academic and social background as a college student in her home country of Estonia and later in the American Studies graduate program at the University of Wyoming. As we talked about LGBT tolerance and queer social life in Tartu, Laramie, and Williamsburg, Helis elaborated upon some broader ideas about identity politics and the meaning of the word “queer.”
