The Casey O’Brien Activist Award is now open in the scholarship portal!<\/span><\/h3>\n

The award is given in recognition of student activism (on or off-campus) and leadership within the areas of women\u2019s issues, gender and sexual equality, and social or racial justice. Applications are accepted during February each year leading up to Women\u2019s History Month (March).<\/p>\n

Casey O\u2019Brien was a lecturer in Women\u2019s and Gender Studies for ten years, beginning in 2008. She served a critical role in the development of the\u00a0WGS\u00a0undergraduate program, developing the course,\u00a0WGS\u00a0211: Foundations of Women\u2019s and Gender Studies Writing and Research, launching the\u00a0WGS\u00a0TA mentorship, and engaging students in service learning. As a result of her pedagogical innovations in the classroom, outstanding rapport with students, commitment to feminist teaching methods, and enthusiasm about the subject matter, she became an indispensable member of our teaching staff and a very popular teacher among our students, undergraduate and graduate alike.<\/p>\n

Current bachelor\u2019s degree students with a Women\u2019s and Gender Studies major or minor, WGS master\u2019s students, and WGS graduate certificate students, whose activism and leadership address gender equality and\/or social and racial justice, are eligible to apply here<\/a>.\"\"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
