Gender Studies
Graduate Grants
|
As a result of Dr. Biddlecom’s generous contributions to our program, Gender Studies will offer grants to our graduate minors to assist with expenses associated with research and creative work, including materials, fieldwork, and travel to conferences, workshops, or archives.
The contributions by Dr. Biddlecom initiated the grant and her continued support along with the generous support from other alumni enables the Program to offer the grant to our graduate students.
These grants are awarded twice a year. For the 2018-2019 year, a total of six grants of $300 each will be awarded.

The Bride of Frankenstein (1935)
|
After the success of his previous Frankenstein film, James Whale got the band back together for a sequel, which introduces a love interest with perhaps the most recognizable updo in history. After recovering from injuries sustained in the mob attack upon himself and his creation, Dr. Frankenstein (Colin Clive) falls under the control of his former mentor, Dr. Pretorius (Ernest Thesiger), who insists the now-chastened doctor resume his experiments in creating new life. Meanwhile, the Monster (Boris Karloff) remains on the run from those who wish to destroy him without understanding that his intentions are generally good despite his lack of socialization and self-control.
Free for ND, SMC, HC, and IUSB students.

Gender Studies is about understanding people, both yourself and others. Gender Studies teaches us how human identities are shaped by gender and related traits such as sex, sexuality, race, ethnicity, class, religion and nationality. Through Gender Studies, we not only strive to understand people better, but because of this endeavor, we hopefully become more understanding people.
