SOC 265 Gender and Society

In this course we will critically examine the ways gender informs the social world in which we live. Our goals for this course will be 1) to reveal the "common-sense" world of gender around you; 2) to consider how we learn to "do" gender; 3) to expose the workings of the institutions that shape our gendered lives; and 4) to come to an understanding of the relationship between gender and the social structure.
