The program started in Fall 2008.
Sheena Malhorta, an associate professor for the gender & women studies major, is the coordinator for the queer studies program. She said an interdisciplinary committee — established by the dean of the College of Humanities — worked for a couple years to design the new minor but noted that for decades, "there have been students asking for something like this."
