Women and Gender Studies attracts great students with strong academic skills who are also interested in applying their WGST education in the real world. Our students come from different walks of life and different parts of the world, and this diversity enriches our department. Our students are diverse in terms of race, ethnicity, sexuality, and gender identity.  Many WGST majors volunteer with domestic violence shelters, the movement to end sexual assault, youth groups, political and environmental organizations, and development and empowerment projects in other parts of the world.

One of the primary goals of our babyÖ±²¥app is to foster students’ critical thinking skills in a learning environment that is supportive and challenging. In the babyÖ±²¥app, the media, popular culture, politics, and even academia, we are confronted with stereotypes and one-dimensional representations of gender, race, class, nationality and sexuality. Accordingly, WGST babyÖ±²¥app encourage students to critically engage with course materials and with the world around them, and we provide them tools to do so. We believe such skills are the prerequisites for enhancing the equality, dignity, and empowerment that we value.
