most memorable class: Feminist Theory
most memorable activist moment: When Women's Studies graduate students joined the MSU GLBTQ group SAGE for a peaceful demonstration when a large group of right-wing fundamentalists began waging hate on campus. We started singing "Yes Jesus Loves Me" and we garnered the support of not only feminists and gay rights activists but also of fraternities, athletes, Christian groups, and hundreds of students.
