Alumni Author Series – Wandering Close to Home
In recognition of National Coming Out Day (October 11), JCU alumnus and author Christopher Drajem ’90 will share his journey of coming out to his family shortly after he graduated from John Carroll. He left behind limiting, outdated roles that no longer worked, and kept only what mattered most: his individuality and his family. His story is shared in a collaborative memoir Wandering Close to Home, that he wrote with his mother, who has her own unique journey towards feminism.
The program will be moderated by Tiffany Galvin Green, Ph.D., Vice President of Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion.
Monday, October 11, 2021 | 7:30 p.m. (EST)
