Women and Gender Studies Center

Welcome to the Women and Gender Studies Center!

The mission of the Women and Gender Studies Center is to bridge academic coursework with student development, leadership, and coalition building.

We are designed to provide opportunities for intellectual, personal, and social inquiry and interrogation related to sex; gender; gender identity/expression; sexuality; intersections with race, ethnicity, class, (dis) ability, age, nationality, immigration and citizenship status, and religion, through feminist, queer and multiracial lenses, with a focus on global and transnational issues and public policy.

We host lectures, offer student development opportunities, and participate in important programs such as Women's History Month and the Consent Carnival to raise awareness and promote a sense of community on campus. Learn more about our events, access some of our women and gender studies resources, and get involved by visiting us!
