All of our lives are informed by our experience and
understanding of gender. Under this belief, the Women’s
Center (founded in 1972) is a space open to all
students—regardless of gender – who are interested in
issues specific to women and/or more broadly related to
the experience of gender.
While the Women’s Center’s primary purpose is to serve
undergraduate students, we also offer information, event
opportunities, and resources for graduate students,
faculty and staff, alumni, and parents.
The Women’s Center is committed to fostering student
leadership and helping students identify and understand
societal structures that relate to issues of power,
privilege, and oppression. In this pursuit, the center
offers programs that focus on the experience of all
gender identities and how each experience is informed by
other aspects of identity such as race and ethnicity,
sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and
socioeconomic class. Some of our programming includes:
Dinner and a Movie, First Friday Lunch Series, Social
Justice Communal Meals, Hot Topics, and a Graduate and
Undergraduate Feminist Reading Group.
Beyond attending programs, The Women’s Center Student
Collaborative, SAGE (Students Acting for Gender
Equality) is a great way for students of any gender to
get involved. SAGE’s mission is to foster a safe and
collaborative community in which we educate ourselves on
gender issues while gaining the skills necessary to
productively work towards gender justice at Tufts and
beyond.
The director is available to all students for academic
and personal advising related to gender, academic
majors, and careers as well as questions related to
transitioning to college and identity formation and
development.
