Tenured Professor and Department Chair at Augusta University How were you affiliated with WGS? Graduate Certificate in Women's and Gender Studies. Tell us about your current work (paid or unpaid!) I am a tenured professor of English and department chair. How has your Women's and Gender Studies experience shaped your life and work post-graduation? Women's and Gender Studies at UGA provided me with a theoretical lens and the skills to apply feminism in my career and personal life. I have taught WGST courses and served as director for our WGST program. What are your favorite memories from your time in Women's and Gender Studies at UGA? Courses, professors, events? Patricia Bell Scott and Joya Misra were the professors whose classes shaped my thinking about gender the most. I remember the undergraduate and graduate conferences the most. I presented at the conference. Any advice for current Women's and Gender Studies students (graduate or undergraduate)? Invest in research opportunities. Work in community organizations.
