Something I love about FS: we're independent. We are self-governed and self-managed, apart from universities. This always seemed important to our identity, but its essential now.

One of my favorite things about Feminist Studies is our commitment to art. We regularly publish art essays with full color spreads of art work (have an idea to pitch us? Please send!) and our covers are stunning. Shout out to Duy-Khuong Van, our graphic designer.
