Mission Statement
The mission of the Gender Seminar (GRS) at Loyola University Chicago is to advance
knowledge
and understanding of the role that gender plays in the structure and function of society. The
seminar offers an interdisciplinary forum for the study of gender, its function in cultures and
societies, and its intersection with a range of topics related to gender, including feminisms,
masculinities, gay, lesbian, and transgendered sexualities, bisexuality, queer methodologies, and
related issues of race, ethnicity, and class. The purpose of the seminar is to facilitate and
expand
such scholarship by creating networks among interested Loyola scholars and helping them them
become aware of each others' work. Seminar meetings offer opportunities for colloquia in which
these scholars can exchange their work and present it to others. The GRS especially welcomes
work that bridges social sciences and the humanities and links those who work in different
divisions and schools within the University.
