The mission of the Department of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at the University of South Florida is feminist education, research, and practice.

We teach students to use the analytic skills that emerge from engaging the intersections of gender, race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, ability, and nation in order to promote responsible citizenship in a diverse transnational environment.

We expose limits in traditional higher education caused by excluding women and other marginalized groups and create knowledge that is transformative and inclusive. We aim for knowledge that will better all people's lives, not just the lives of a few.

We connect our work as academics with the social, political, and economic world outside the university to educate our students about social inequalities that result from sexism, heterosexism and homophobia, racism, classism, able-ism, and ethnocentrism. We link knowledge, research, teaching, and activism.

We seek to empower students through a feminist critique of social, cultural, and institutional structures that enables them to think more critically about their own lives and that inspires them to work as active citizens for social change.

From environmental policy and resource management to contemporary political challenges and rewriting the state's colonial history, Florida presents distinctive issues that merit close attention. Students from all disciplines can benefit from Florida Studies courses as they prepare for a wide range of career opportunities, including public history, education, museum studies, land management, and public service. For anyone interested in how our state fits into matters of regional and global significance, this program presents the ideal opportunity to use the State of Florida as a teaching and research laboratory.

The Feed-A-Bull Food Pantry helps to ensure that students do not have to choose between buying textbooks or buying groceries -- because no student should ever go hungry! Feed-A-Bull, an initiative spearheaded by Student Health Services and Feeding America Tampa Bay, strives to alleviate food hardship and hunger among all enrolled USF students by providing supplemental food, nutrition education and resources to any student in need -- whatever their situation -- in order to ensure their academic success at USF. The confidential pantry was created as a response to the knowledge that approximately 30 percent of students face food insecurity while attending the university for a variety of reasons, and supplemental food assistance may allow these students to focus on their studies.
