Kirkland Project Apple

Conference: Masculinities: Global and Local

In 2002 - 2003, the Kirkland Project's theme was been masculinity. In the interest of deepening Hamilton's engagement with the theme of masculinity, we sponsored a one and one half day conference on March 8 through March 9 to consider masculinity both out in the wor ld and here in the college. The conference included a mix of presentations and panels on war, tomboys, sexual assault, fraternities, atheletics, and sexuality. Our goal was to inform and intrigue.
