WGSS 202 - Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies

Examines the roots of and topics within the feminist project and explores how gender and sexuality are shaped and mutually constituted by bodies, systems and ideologies. Students explore gender and sexuality through a variety of frameworks, and in tandem with race, ethnicity, class, religion, and other markers of identity. By enrolling in WGSS 202, students agree to engage in an interdisciplinary and transnational journey that investigates gender as ever-evolving, cultural, sociohistorical, and differentially read and experienced in varying contexts. Students develop the language and analytical tools to speak and think critically about oppression, patriarchy, and social change, to unlearn common assumptions about the world and people around us.
