The mission of the Tufts University Women's Center is to advance the personal growth and intellectual development of all students, and especially women, particularly on issues related to women and gender. We are committed to fostering student leadership and helping students identify and understand societal structures that relate to issues of power, privilege, and oppression as well as providing re
sources to graduate students, faculty and staff, alumni, and parents. In this pursuit, the Center offers programming, advising, information, and resources about women, men, and gender that are informed by other aspects of identity such as race and ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and socioeconomic class. Beyond attending programs, The Women's Center Student Collaborative, SAGE (Students Acting for Gender Equality) is a great way for undergraduate students of any gender to get involved. SAGE's mission is to foster a safe and collaborative community in which we educate ourselves on gender issues while gaining the skills necessary to productively work towards gender justice at Tufts and beyond. The Center's director is available to all students regardless of gender for academic and personal advising related to gender, academic majors, and career. The director is also happy to discuss transition to college life and other issues of identity formation and development as they are inflected by multiple intersections of identity.
