Colgate University: Undergraduate Research and Writing

The following pages are essays and other pieces produced by members of Ethan Freedman on their journey to getting familiar with themes surrounding gender, sexuality, race, ethnicity, and other intersectional axis of power that act on our bodies and minds and effect the extent that one can receive a comprehensive sex education. In writing about these topics, arguments were based on desire to write and illuminate critical ways of thinking – not to raise an opinion. Each paper written is organized under the course and professor who facilitated.
