G-Chats, aka Gender-Chats are informal monthly lunchtime talks about the ways gender intersects with our lived experiences. G-Chats are grounded in scholarly inquiry, and often led by faculty experts at Wake Forest. They are also spaces for anyone who is interested in learning more about a topic, whether or not you are an expert. Past G-Chats have focused on reproductive rights, international women’s soccer, and birth control. 

If you are a faculty member, staff member, or graduate student whose research/scholarly interests intersect with gender and you’d like to give a G-Chat, please contact Shell Sizemore (gravessa@wfu.edu)
