women's, gender, and sexuality studies minor

The Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies minor provides a multicultural, multiracial, and multi-generational look at the evolution of women’s experiences. Students explore politics, sexuality, health, and education through a multidisciplinary curriculum.

The goals of the program are fundamental to all human endeavors:

  • To work toward educational equity.
  • To develop a curriculum and a community that is free of sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, and all forms of discrimination.
  • To create awareness of the worldwide contributions of women.
  • To establish an educational environment that encourages personal and academic growth.
