GCS diehards and celebratory drinks. Three fantastic Phd presentations at our final WIP (Work-In-Progress) session for the semester!
Starting in August, a unit designed and taught by the Feminist Boys Studies Research Group. "Girls and Boys: Gendered forms of youth" will explore different ways to think about gender and young people. Open to Masters and Honours students at @ArtSS_Sydney. boysresearch.org/blog/come-s…

Dear GCS friends and followers - if you’re an academic or student, or a former student, and your department was or is crucial to you… please sign and share this petition.
Here's a link to a Google.docs petition against abolishing Departments in the Faculty (FASS) where I work (at Uni of Sydney). Academic colleagues, and present and past students, please read and consider signing and forward as appropriate:

Managers at @Sydney_Uni want to abolish the departments of the uni's Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences. This is major vandalism. Staff are overwhelmingly opposed yet are being ignored. Share our video and tell managers @mscott @arjagose & @adkinsprof to respect staff and the uni.
Congrats to our newly minted PhDs and their supervisors! Dr @ManxomeMia, Dr @sctotee89, Dr @kirsty_howey, Dr @aishapmalik, and also Dr Djuna Violeta and Dr @jamieyingwang and all who could not join in the celebrations on campus.

Great to see a new series of online talks organised by the Association for Cultural Studies. #1 is The Care Collective (Andreas Chatzidakis, Jamie Hakim, Jo Littler, Catherine Rottenberg & Lynne Segal) on ‘Repairing Care’. 21 May, 5-6pm BST (see cultstud.org/wordpress/virtu…).
Blurry screenshots but big congratulations to our students for their outstanding academic achievements.
Beautiful words from GCS graduate @scarlettrfranks, "I came to gender studies the way many students do...
"A key philosophy in the discipline is the rejection of the so-called “objective, neutral” observer and author of knowledge. In Gender Studies, we are not afraid to be earnest, we are not ashamed to have a stake in the issues at hand..."
