Parting Thoughts: I took Queer Theory this semester and absolutely loved it! I was pretty intimidated coming in (after being pretty confused by Butler/Foucault in Fem Theory), but I learned a ton and really enjoyed our class discussions.

Tanaja Stephenson

Major

Pronouns: She/Her/Hers

Favorite WGS Class: My favorite class was LGBTQ in the media because I was able to learn and physically see the history of sexuality in magazine, movies, shows and more. I could see the the fight for recognition through the various representations of the LGBTQ community over time.

Teresa Tintaya

Major, Sexuality Concentration

Pronouns: She/Her

Parting Thoughts: I remember on one of the first days of Issues in LGBTQ Studies with Doug Meyer, he said something along the lines of "Profound change doesn't make people comfortable."  That class made me think much more critically about the world and made me want to declare my major in WGS.
