The faculty, students, and alumnae/​alumni​ of the Department of Women & Gender Studies —along with the entire UD community—will be celebrating our accomplishments, documenting key milestones in the movement, and preparing to face the challenges still ahead.

Over three semesters, while highlighting the role of our Department, we will be reflecting on legislative victories, exploring lessons from history, and mobilizing to create a better future for all people experiencing discrimination and marginalization. ​
