Feminist and Gender Studies at Colorado College engages in a critical examination of theories about and attitudes toward women, sex, and gender both in Western and global cultural settings. The goal of Feminist and Gender Studies is to broaden our perspectives and consider the conditions for the creation of a more equitable society.
