Friends of Women's & Gender Studies
Friends of Women's and Gender Studies is the community support group for our department. Our Friends group is made up of colleagues, community leaders, educators, parents, and alumnae. Each year, Friends of Women's and Gender Studies provides a series of speakers and events for the wider community to provide rich opportunities for engagement and dialogue. Through Friends of Women's and Gender Studies, students are supported with four endowed scholarships, a range of mentoring and career preparation opportunities, and a diverse support system that draws from alumna and invested advocates for feminist education.
