The Boston University Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies (WGS) Program fosters interdisciplinary research and teaching related to the intersections of gender, sexuality, race, citizenship status, disability, and other dimensions of social life that sustain and exacerbate systems of inequality. We seek to understand the consequences of structures of gender and sexuality inequality across a diverse array of temporal, cultural, and geographic contexts.

On the Pride Flag: BU WGS is committed to flying the Progress Pride Flag in our space as a small but mighty gesture toward an increased sense of safety, support, inclusivity, and representation for all our LGBTQIA+ community members, but especially for the students we have a duty of care to provide for as an educational institution.
