GWS 357 - Feminist Educations

Cross-listed as: EDU 357.

The course explores the rise of co-education, university campus culture, the feminization of teaching, gender’s impact on learning styles, and the ways race, ethnicity, sexuality, gender identity, and social class contribute to students’ aspirations and experiences within our deeply gendered learning institutions.
