Women and Gender Studies Graduate Students Association
WAGS-GSA
Every student registered in the Graduate Programme in Women’s Studies at the Centre is a full member of WSGSA with voting privileges. This includes both full- and part-time students. The WSGSA pursues several objectives. We strive to facilitate communication between graduate students enrolled in the Women’s Studies Programme at the Centre for Women’s and Gender Studies (CWAGS). The WSGSA serves as a liaison between students and faculty and advocates student interests, ideas and concerns. We work to promote a sense of community among scholars and students at CWAGS, and pursue activist and advocacy roles in social justice and equity issues. Current executive officers include Abby Wener Herlin PhD Representative; Ahoo Najafian, MA Representative; Emilia Neilsen, Treasurer; Bjorg Hjartardottir, CUPE Representative; Beth Stewart; CFIS Representative; Sam Semper, Special Projects Coordinator; Emilia Nielsen, Special Projects Coordinator-Gender Performances Project.
