GWSS - Gender Women and Sexuality Studies

This course introduces you to key issues in the field of GWSS with a special focus on voice: Who gets to speak? By what means? And for whom? this class considers the ways that categories of identity (e.g., gender, sexuality, race, class, religious affiliation, and citizenship status) intersect and shaped lived experience. Similar to an intro course, this class is open to anyone curious about GWSS.

The Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies Capstone serves as the culmination of students' work in the major or minor. In this course, students compile, reflect on, and self-assess their written work from different courses and demonstrate their growth by writing a reflection paper. Students meet weekly for group discussion or individually with the faculty member.
