Student Organizations + Gender Studies 

Whitman is lucky to have a number of clubs and groups on campus that may be of particular interest to students of Gender Studies. These include:

Prism

PRISM (Pride, Raising Involvement, Solidarity, and Mentorship) is an organization for Whitman students who identify along the queer spectrum and/or are questioning. The group meets once a week.

Queer Trans Students of Color

Queer Trans Students of Color is a safe space for BIPOC students who are also a part of the LGBTQ+ community. 

Disability and Difference Community

Whitman’s Disability and Difference Community is a space for and by Disabled students seeking an affirming and understanding environment. DISCO is dedicated to celebrating the Disabled experience and culture while fostering genuine conversations surrounding the societal barriers that persist in higher education.

This is a unique setting for any Whitman student with a disability and/or chronic illness, whether they be physical, neurological, psychological, or otherwise defined. We recognize the full spectrum of disabled identities and honor each individual in how they want to and are able to engage with our group. Come as you are.

Planned Parenthood Generation Action

Planned Parenthood Generation Action (PPGA) is a movement of young people across identities and issues that organize with, by, and for their generation in order to achieve reproductive freedom; led by a group of passionate Whitman students who leverage their expertise in youth organizing, leadership development, voter engagement programs, and infrastructure building to motivate, empower, train, and provide resources to lead reproductive freedom campaigns on and off Whitman's campus to address issues locally, and build power nationally.
