I remember sitting in my first FGSS class as a freshman when it hit me! This is what it's supposed to feel like. This is what it feels like to be genuinely invested and challenged by my work. In my FGSS classes I've had conversations unlike any others. I've voiced things I've always wanted to voice as well as some I'd once been too nervous to address. In these classes, the conversations are tackled with a precision and understanding unlike any I could muster myself; these have been enriched and refined by the tools, vocabulary and greater context afforded to me by my amazing professors, peers and continued studies. My time in FGSS has made me further curious, critical and open, it too has made me acutely aware that the personal is political and the collective is powerful.
