Feminist Lives & Queer Trajectories Series
What do you do with a Gender Studies, English, or History major? What jobs do you pursue if you want your commitment to social justice to be manifest in your life's work? In the Feminist Lives and Queer Trajectories Series, feminist and/or queer activists, academics, artists, professionals, and business leaders will describe their life trajectories, how they came to do the work they do, and why it matters to them. Two special guests each quarter will present a brief talk and discuss student's questions and concerns on this topic, with lunch provided.
