The Gender and Sexuality Studies Workshop provides an interdisciplinary forum for the development of critical perspectives on gender and sexuality. The workshop’s primary purpose is to promote studies of the ways in which gender and secuality shape human experience and are embedded in other social practices. The workshop serves as a forum for discussing both graduate student papers and unpublished work from scholars in the field. Graduate student presentations may focus on any area of gender and sexuality studies. Workshop participants share the responsibility for choosing topics and speakers and for evaluating the effectiveness of the workshop’s interdisciplinary process.
