Gender Studies Symposium - College of Arts and Sciences - Lewis & Clark

35th Annual Gender Studies Symposium

March 9-11, 2016 

The 35th Annual Gender Studies Symposium examined concepts of fun and play in relation to gender and sexuality. We joined with students, scholars, gamers, comedians, activists, artists, and visionaries in toying with topics such as the meaning of child’s play, the concept of the humorless feminist, ideas of leisure and escape, and the nature of entertainment and comedy.  

  Student Co-Chairs:

Hannah Daniels ’16, Anya Hall ’16, Alexa Jakusovszky ’16, and Em Schuler ’16 

• The video for Wednesday night’s keynote presentation, “Do All Lives Matter on Saturday Night?: Race, Gender, and College Parties”, David J. Leonard, is available here.
