Center for Gender Equity
The mission of the Center for Gender Equity is to promote equity around gender and sexuality, for Pacific students and the surrounding communities, through support services, education, and activism.
Support Services
We provide support services and a sense of connection and belonging to Pacific students, focusing specifically, but not exclusively, on issues of sex and gender.
Education
We provide educational programming to the campus and wider community on issues related to gender equity.
Activism
We strive to dismantle the systems of oppression that perpetuate gender inequity through coalition building and collective action.
The Center for Gender Equity (CGE) is open to everyone on Pacific University’s campuses and in the community, regardless of gender. We seek opportunities to cooperate with any group, as long as that collaboration furthers the mission of CGE.
