Honors in Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies
The Honors Program in Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies offers senior GSFS majors the opportunity for recognition of distinguished achievement in research and writing in gender, sexuality, and feminist studies. Students will be considered for honors in spring of junior year based on their performance in the major and the quality of the honors proposal. Students applying for honors must complete GSFS 305 in the fall term of the junior year unless they make a case for an exceptional circumstance.
