Gender and Feminist Studies Research
Are there gender discrepancies you've noticed that really bother you? Do women in your school get treated very differently than the men do? Doing a gender and/or feminist project requires close attention to inequality and a willingness to hypothesize solutions. Creativity and a passion for equality is also a must!
Memoir Writing
Have you ever been interested in telling your own story? Memoir writing can be a beautiful tool to write about the experiences that are unique to you. Students can focus on a particular moment in their life that stands out or write more broadly about the ups and downs of their entire life. The personal is political and writing a memoir can be a beautiful way to engage with the political possibilities in one's own story.
