Reading Groups

Center for the Study of Race, Ethnicity and Gender

The Center provides funds and support for both ongoing reading groups and groups associated with particular speakers or events. Currently the Center sponsors two ongoing groups: The Feminist Fiction Reading Group and the Racial and Ethnic Studies Reading Group.

Feminist Fiction Reading Group: The Feminist Fiction Reading Group, a Bucknell institution for over 20 years, holds monthly meetings. The group reads works of fiction (and sometimes non-fiction) that deal with race, class and gender, and how they impact on the changing roles of women in American society and in the world. For further information, contact Martha Holland: holland@bucknell.edu


Racial and Ethnic Studies Reading Group: For information, contact Michael Drexler: mdrexler@bucknell.edu or Michael James: mjames@bucknell.edu


Motherhood and Academic Life:  Organized by Sheila Lintott (Philosophy)  sl025@bucknell.edu.
