History
Originally founded in 1991 as the Women's Center, the Women and Gender Equity Center, or WAGE, was renamed in 2020 through efforts of students, faculty, and staff who recognized the impact of gender on our sense of place, self, and access. WAGE is committed to cultivating spaces of connection that meet the evolving needs of our campus to explore and celebrate the intersections of gender and other identities.
