Any graduate student interested in sociology of gender may participate. We'll engage in several different activities during our meetings. First, participants present their research in progress and receive comments from other members of the workshop. Second, we meet with visiting scholars to discuss their work. Finally, we occasionally read and discuss important books or articles in the area of gender studies.
