Quotes from Students

I learned so much both about the world around me, and about myself. I feel like minoring in WGSS truly and wholly made me a more well-rounded, better person. I think a lot of the knowledge I gained will open doors for me in the future of my career.

Aubrey, Psychology major and WGSS minor

WGSS has added so much to my professional and academic career, along with my personal and emotional future! It was the best part of my undergraduate degree and helped me find a sense of belonging and inclusivity. It helped me find my true passions and learn to embrace my own identity in my professional endeavors.

Naomi, Physics Teacher Education major and WGSS minor

The classes are very interesting and can make everyone think outside of the box. WGSS allows students to learn about history and theory that they are not typically taught in other classes.

Valerie, Anthropology major, WGSS minor, and Queer Studies concentration

WGSS courses changed my perspective on life for the better. I was inspired to make my program projects around WGSS topics and integrate feminist therapy and multicultural therapy into my work. I was periodically challenging my own beliefs, biases, and privileges and found myself becoming more interested in others' life stories and backgrounds.
