Tuesdays, 5:00 PM – 8:00 PM<br>
January 30, 2018 – May 8, 2018<br>
MIT Course Number: WGS.645 <br>
 <br>
Using a variety of disciplinary lenses (history, psychology, sociology), this course explores the factors that impede women from successful participation in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) careers in the United States. A look into history will reveal that in different times and places, science, or at least certain branches of science, has been considered an entirely appropriate arena for women and that the advancement of women in the sciences does not follow a linear progressive trend. The course will also cover a variety of sociological and psychological mechanisms (including critical mass, accumulation of disadvantages, stereotype threat, implicit association, and attribution theory) that currently tend to distance women from scientific pursuits. Our investigation will range from what happens in the educational system to the situation of women scientists in the workplace. Furthermore, we will examine programs and interventions that are designed to support and promote women in STEM. Particular attention will be paid to how gender intersects with other powerful mechanisms of stratification, such as sexuality, race/ethnicity, and class.<br>

<u><strong>Resistance in Feminist Queer Theater/Theory</strong></u><br>
Wednesdays, 5:00 PM – 8:00 PM<br>
January 29, 2018 – May 7, 2018<br>
MIT Course Number: WGS.700<br>
 <br>
There is something “spectacular” about revolutions: the drama of barriers being broken, the emotion of the crowd. And for feminist and queer activism in particular, the nature of visibility, spectacle and protest has been integral to gains made by groups such as ACT UP! or the Combahee Women’s Collective. This course, however, moves beyond the relationship between social movements and theater to hone in on a critical theory of performance: why and how is theater so important to feminist and queer thought? From Judith Butler’s sense of “performatively” constructed gender to José Estaban Munoz’ theory of “disidentification” in queer of color critique, theatricality and performance studies have lent robust paradigms to queer and feminist theory. In other words, one aspect of this course will examine what theater and queer theory share: troubling the nature of representation, investigating mimesis and secondariness, spectacle and masochism. However, another aspect of this course will look at how queer and feminist thought can put pressure on the theater (and vice-versa); how do the theater’s exigencies of action (drama) oppose theories of neutral or passive (minimal, bored) resistance? What type of spectatorship does queer and feminist theater elicit? Can the theater stand as realm of change, or is there a sense in which the “revolution can not be televised?”—that is to say, when the powerful sentiments of the disgruntled, disenfranchised, or dispossessed are captured in aesthetic form, does it lend legibility, or does it domesticate such affects? The course presents a genealogy of performativity and performance and its relationship to feminist theories and queer critique. Interweaving political philosophy, theater studies, and literary analysis, the course asks students to think speculatively and creatively about the poetics and politics of theatricality, sex, race, and gender.<br>

<u><strong>Feminist Inquiry</strong></u><br>
Tuesdays, 1:30 PM – 4:30 PM<br>
January 28, 2018 – May 6, 2018<br>
MIT Course Number: WGS.615<br>
 <br>
This course aims to offer a grounding in the rich field of scholarship theorizing feminism, gender and sexuality. Our purpose is to engage thoughtfully and critically with several foundational and vibrantly contested conversations within feminist theory. The course is organized around several “keywords”, each of which is a central concept within feminist theory. Keywords include patriarchy, woman, gender, difference/equality, intersectionality/transnationalism, postcolonial/decolonial, solidarity, and human rights. The readings included in this syllabus reflect a range of academic disciplinary perspectives, methodologies, cross-cultural assumptions, and discursive styles so that we can consider a variety of feminist discourses. We will reflect as well on the politics and practices of location, methods, form, and interdisciplinarity.</span></div>
