About the Program

We provide students with opportunities to develop skills that will prepare them to pursue social justice and work in diverse communities. GSRS graduates will be able to solve problems in diverse environments, work effectively across difference, and lead from an equity mindset, some of the most important skills and abilities desired by employers.

The Gender, Sexuality, and Race Studies program at Pacific Lutheran University gives students the important tools, resources, and language needed for personal empowerment and civic engagement. PLU GSRS graduates are prepared to pursue social justice creatively and effectively in their own ways. Our graduates are making positive changes in the way gender, sexuality, and race are understood globally in the 21st century.
