The Women's Studies Program organizes a fall colloquium to provide the academic community an opportunity to present papers on, analyze, and discuss a specific topic.The purpose of the Gender & Gender Identity colloquium is to highlight feminist research and debates over the meanings of gender. Topics have included gender and media, gender and political activism, cultural construction of gender, teaching about GLBTQ movement in the classroom and psychology of sex roles.
The colloquium will be conducted on October 31st. The month of October is nationally recognized as Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender (GLBT) & Ally Awareness Month.
