1. Why did you choose Cornell? 

I chose Cornell because it allows for an enriched experience with an extensive course roster, accomplished and engaged faculty, and a diverse collection of campus organizations. 

2. How did you decide to minor in FGSS?

I read books by feminist authors and am interested in feminist geopolitics, so minoring in FGSS seemed like a natural step for me. 

3. How does FGSS compliment your major field of study? 

An FGSS background has led me to focus my coursework and research in ILR on worker rights and labor violations committed against vulnerable workers. 

4. What are your future career and educational goals? 

After a couple years of work experience, I intend to go to law school and begin my career in law. I will continue to engage with feminist politics and research throughout my time in the legal profession.

My favorite FGSS class was FGSS 2421: Worlding Sex and Gender with Dr. Lucinda Ramberg.
