Changing the World with Feminist Social Science: A Conversation with WGS Chair Jocelyn Viterna will take place on Monday, February 12, 2024 from 12pm to 1pm in the WGS Lounge in Boylston Hall. 

Join Professor Jocelyn Viterna and student Lucy Tu, and the rest of the WGS community for lunch, discussion, and community.  First-year students can count attendance at this event as part of the Exploring Fields of Study program.  WGS advisors will be available to answer your questions.

Dr.  Jocelyn Viterna is a sociologist who studies the legal and health repercussions of abortion criminalization in El Salvador. Her research in El Salvador offers insight into how the repeal of Roe v Wade will have consequences for pregnant people in the United States. At the Exploring Fields of Study event, Jocelyn will discuss how a primary or secondary concentration in WGS can support students seeking to better understand—and change—the gender and sexuality systems of our world.
