VCU Gender, Sexuality and Women's Studies
Our students, faculty, and staff engage in activism, creative endeavors, and traditional academic scholarship in order to strengthen connections with one another and the community and to work towards social justice and collective liberation. We pride ourselves on putting our students first, and we respect GSWS students as meaningful collaborators in the learning process. Our close-knit community is opening and welcome to all; we hope to see you at an event or gathering, whether you're currently taking GSWS courses or not!

- Abolition Education
