Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Program Research Symposia

The interdisciplinary nature at the core of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies (WGSS) fields reflects the diverse nature of scholarship in these areas at Illinois State University. Students in fields of study ranging from the arts and humanities to education, social sciences, medicine, and communications bring critical analyses to their work through the lenses of gender, race, class, ethnicity, and LGBT/Queer studies, to name just a few. WGSS student research and creative endeavors across campus also reflect new and changing methods, theories, and practices, resulting in an exhilarating program of scholarship, activism, and artistic production that is highlighted each year at the WGSS Annual Student Research Symposium.

The posters, fliers, and programs in this collection document the history of the symposium from the first event held in 1996 through the present day.
