Abstract
This proposal stems from the ongoing international discourse on non-binary identity and the recent shift towards adopting non-binary language on the campus of the University of Southern California (USC) and other universities nationwide. This paper discusses the shift towards adopting non-binary language on the campus of USC, as well as the attempts of the faculty at the department of Latin American and Iberian Cultures to integrate non-binary language in Spanish language instruction. This study discusses the findings of the polls conducted among Spanish learners at USC, as well as the success and the challenges resulting from faculty’s efforts to foster diverse pedagogical and curricular approaches to enhance student learning, encourage critical-thinking, and ultimately promote and celebrate diversity, equity, and inclusion.
