Our curriculum is designed to assist you in learning to value life and to explore women’s experiences and contributions across cultures, communities, and historical periods. We will examine and discuss the social construction of gender and interaction with race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, disability, and age.
Our interdisciplinary courses include cultural matters that bring racism, classism, homophobia, traditional ideas about gender roles and identities, and other vectors of women’s oppression into focus. Many can be counted towards meeting your Stout Core requirements.
