A Message from the Interim Director

Dear Colleagues,

As Interim Director, I welcome you to the Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies (WGSS) Program website. This year marks a major milestone for us – the 30th Anniversary of the program’s founding – and we proudly celebrate these past three decades of committed and engaged interdisciplinary feminist scholarship and education at Northeastern University. It also marks an exciting year of transition and growth as we thoughtfully look to the future with our search for a new permanent director. Now in my third year as faculty in the sociology department at Northeastern, I look forward to working with you over the next months in my new role in WGSS, and I encourage you to explore our website to learn about the many possibilities available through our program. I welcome your questions and comments; please feel free to contact me directly at l.blum@neu.edu. or (617) 373-4995.

Sincerely,

Linda M. Blum
