The Program for the Study of Women and Gender in Church and Society at Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School is an integral part of the academic program and the support services offered by the divinity school to its students, faculty, administration, staff, alumni, churches, and to the wider community. The program is multicultural and multifaceted in its structure, staffing and activities.
The goals of the program are:
- to provide a program of rigorous critical studies focused on issues affecting the lives and work of women in church and society, and on analysis of gender, race, class, age, and sexual orientation, in solidarity with communities of women worldwide;
- to advocate and to provide methods and resources for the incorporation of these critical studies into all areas of the divinity school curriculum and services;
- to provide personal and institutional support for women in ministry in multiple settings, including the seminary, churches, and the community at large;
- to work in mutual cooperation with the Program of Black Church Studies at the divinity school; and
- to participate in related studies programs and disciplinary and ecclesial discussions nation and world-wide.
The Program in the Study of Women and Gender is integrated into the Master of Divinity curriculum. Doctor of Ministry students may focus their studies on Women in Religious Leadership.
