How does this shape your experiences
Higher education as a gendered institution.Sociology
We’ve introduced the idea that education is a gendered institution governed by norms and policies and that the salience of gender often ebbs and flows across different contexts, activities, and spaces.
Consider the particular organization in which you are now embedded: college.
Brainstorm the ways in which your college or university both the formal process of education and residence life and the social life both on and off campus is governed by gendered norms and policies.
How is your college experience gendered, if at all?
Brainstorm both norms and policies.
Where is gender more salient? Less? How so? And why do you think that is?
