Queer Studies (C009)

GEC Coordinator: Erica Rand

Queer Studies looks at sexuality and gender while foregrounding non-normative or anti-normative perspectives. Queer Studies includes considerations of lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, and genderqueer history, culture, and politics, with mindful attention to the limits and alternatives to those time- and culture-bound terms.
